Meet Teddy — the Sweetest Shepherd Mix with a Heart of Gold.
Teddy is a lovable Shepherd mix with a gorgeous reddish-brown coat and the softest, most soulful eyes you’ve ever seen. This sweet boy is the perfect balance of playful and cuddly—he can romp around with his toys one minute and melt into your arms the next.
He’s also a wonderful big brother to little Freddy, always keeping an eye on him and showing his gentle, caring nature. Teddy is currently working on potty and leash training and is already doing well using pee pads. He’s a smart pup and eager to keep learning!
Teddy would love nothing more than to spend Christmas in a warm, loving forever home. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will adore you endlessly, Teddy may be the perfect match.
The adoption fee for this dog is $425. He is up to date on vaccines and preventatives.

If you are viewing on Petfinder/Adoptapet and cannot see photos or would like to apply for this dog please visit our website, www.frecklesfoundation.org.
***Note that puppy adoption fees most often help generate revenue that goes towards older, special needs animals that need our help. Surgeries, heartworm treatment, boarding costs....all things that often result in adoptable dogs and cats being left behind to be euthanized. So, adopting a puppy saves not just one life, but many!
Puppies require an adopter who is home a good part of the day to continue their training! They are up-to-date on age appropriate vaccines and preventatives.
Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue cannot guarantee the exact age or breed of any animal in our care. The age and breed listed are based on information we may have been provided, and the appearance of the animal.

Additional adoption info
Our adoption coordinators have conversations each applicant to ensure a good match for the pet and person/family, perform vet checks if there are current pets. Adopters must come to either the foster home or an event to meet the pet. If the dog/cat is too young to be altered, a deposit is taken and our spay/neuter coordinator follows up ensuring the procedure is done. Below is our link to our dog application. We also have a cat application but there is only space for 1 link.

More about this rescue
A kitten named Freckles, who was diagnosed with Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), and a desire to help more at-risk cats and dogs find forever homes, were the catalyst that ignited Athena Reizakis to start Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue. While our main mission is to place animals in need in loving homes, we also place a special emphasis on the “underdog.” We will not let age or a medical diagnosis, such as FIP or heartworm, be a barrier in giving that animal the chance at the life they so deserve.
Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue, founded in December of 2023, is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are a foster-based rescue with a volunteer network spanning across Maryland, DC, and Virginia. We are committed to creating awareness within the communities we serve and working towards the best interest of the animals in our care. It is not just about finding homes for pets in need but finding a home that is right for them.
Freckles Foundation works with shelters, other rescue groups, community organizations, and individuals to identify cats and dogs in need of rescue. Once in our care we provide these animals with necessary veterinary care and a loving, nurturing foster home until they are adopted. Cats and dogs receive vaccinations, preventatives, and spay/neuter (if age appropriate) prior to adoption. Our rescues are cared for in our network of volunteer foster homes and provided with food, shelter, socialization, training, and other necessary care while awaiting adoption.
We are funded solely by donations and adoption fees. We are 100% volunteer-based currently.
