Story
(DOB 11/18/2019) Freya loves car rides, pup cups, and exploring new trails, and she’s happiest when she’s included as part of the family. With her supermodel-sleek physique and gorgeous chocolate brown coat, she “dresses up beautifully” in vibrant colors like, bright pink, sunny yellow, or light blue outfits look stunning on her. Feel free to let her strut her stuff when you’re out and about!
Freya is an incredible Doberman with a big heart, a sharp mind, and energy to spare. Past the crazy puppy phase and still has plenty of puppy sparkle and enthusiasm for life. She loves toys, playtime, and staying active, and she’d be thrilled to be your hiking buddy, trail explorer, or training partner. With her intelligence and drive to please, Freya would absolutely shine in agility, Rally Obedience, or any activity that keeps her both physically and mentally engaged. And true to Doberman form, she’ll happily sneak in cuddles and kisses between adventures.
Freya is highly intelligent and eager to learn. She listens very well to commands she already knows and picks up new ones quickly, making her a fantastic match for an experienced owner who understands working breeds. She enjoys having a job to do and thrives with structure, consistency, and continued training. Daily exercise and mental stimulation are musts for this girl, and she’ll reward you with loyalty, focus, and lots of love.
In the home, Freya is fully house trained and crates well. She is currently learning to walk more politely on leash and continues to improve with practice. In her yard she will let you know if she hears something out of the ordinary; just part of her being an awesome watchdog. That said, she has loved every person she’s met and is social, affectionate, and confident with humans.
Freya currently lives with a cat and does well with close supervision. With other dogs, she can be selective. She has been corrective with dog friends when they cross her boundaries, making it clear when she needs space. Slow introductions, decompression time, and a submissive, respectful canine companion may work well for her. Freya was once a devoted momma, and it’s likely she’s simply done with over-the-top puppy antics and prefers calmer, more polite interactions.
Freya is still polishing her food manners and can get a little enthusiastic when food/treats are involved, sometimes forgetting just how big and strong she is. She’s already making progress with training and consistency, and with continued guidance she’ll continue to improve. Because of this, she’d do best in an adult-only home or one with older teens (15+) who understand boundaries around food and can help reinforce calm, polite behavior.
She's ready to start her next chapter with you!! So if you are that active, committed home that wants to truly include her in everyday life and if you’re looking for a smart, loyal, adventurous companion with classic Doberman charm, Freya may be your perfect match.
As part of Freya’s $300 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.
