Story
Meet Freddy! 🐾Freddy is a handsome, happy-go-lucky guy with a big heart and a love for everyone he meets. While not much is known about his past, it seems clear that he once belonged to someone. Sadly, Freddy was found abandoned, thin, frightened, and unsure of the people trying to help him. It took eight patient days to earn his trust and safely rescue him, but those scary days are now behind him.Freddy has just arrived at his southern foster home, and his sweet, social personality is already shining through. He loves being with people and will happily hop up on the sofa for some good back scratches. He enjoys going for walks, meeting new friends, and soaking up all the attention he can get. He may occasionally get excited and jump up to say hello, but he responds well to correction and is eager to please.Freddy also does very well with other dogs and especially enjoys having canine friends to play with. He walks nicely on a leash and is housetrained using a dog door. He'll even whine to let his people know when he needs to go outside—a pretty helpful skill for a newly rescued boy!Since Freddy is still settling into foster care, he's just beginning to discover all the fun that comes with being a cherished family dog. For now, his favorite "toys" seem to be his people, and he's perfectly content simply spending time with them.After such an uncertain start, Freddy is ready for the security of a loving home where he'll never have to wonder if someone is coming back for him. If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate, dog-friendly companion who is ready to fill a home with love and happiness, Freddy just might be your guy.All known information about the animal is listed above.
