Story
Fred the Headrest: Part-Time Goof, Full-Time Lover
Hi, I’m Fred… aka your new favorite accessory 💛
At around 2 years old, I’m the perfect mix of playful pup and professional snuggler. I’ve got the heart of a puppy and the soul of a couch potato. I am 27 lb.
My love language? Gentle little puppy nibbles (you know, the “I love you” kind) followed by lots of kisses. And when I say I love to cuddle… I mean it. I don’t just enjoy snuggles—I commit to them. I’ll find any way to be close to you, including sleeping on your shoulder… your chest… or even your head. Honestly, I identify as a weighted blanket.
When I’m not perfecting my snuggle skills, I enjoy the occasional zoomie session—but let’s be real, my true passion is couch potato life right next to my human. I do really well in my crate but I would rather be out next to my human. Car rides? I love them! My foster mom’s put me in a crate in the car to bring me home and I fell asleep!
I do amazing with other dogs, especially ones my size, and I’m always up for a good wrestling match! Bigger dogs can make me a little nervous at first, so I might bark if I’m startled (no surprise parties, please). But give me a few minutes and I warm up quickly—then it’s game on and I’m ready to play. I am potty trained but had one accident in my foster mom's house but once I figured out what door I needed to go to and sit at to let my foster mom know I needed to go I was good! I’m not sure how I do with cats or kids as there are none that I’ve come into contact with but my foster moms house says I’m so friendly and snuggly she doubts there will be a problem. But new things can scare me a bit so easing into it would be best!
My journey started in Oklahoma, where I was rescued from a kill shelter alongside Barney and Wilma (don’t worry—we’re not a package deal). We were strays running together. Now I’m ready for the best upgrade yet: a forever home.
My dream home? I’m looking for a cozy, loving home where snuggles are a top priority and personal space is optional. I’d do great with a laid-back family who enjoys a mix of playtime and couch time.
A fenced-in backyard where I can safely run and enjoy some zoomies would be ideal, but I also love walks and I’m leash trained. A dog my size to wrestle with would be a bonus, and slow introductions to bigger dogs help me feel comfortable and confident.
Most importantly, I’m hoping for a home where I can stay close to my people and be their loyal, goofy cuddle buddy. I ignore cats and am good with kids as well.
Warning: adopting me may result in excessive cuddling and loss of personal space.
