Story

*Freddy's adoption fee has been sponsored by our friends at Another Shot Coffee Roasters!* Meet our big goofy boy named Freddy! Freddy is about 2 years old and he came to our shelter after he was found running around by the highway in town. Freddy is a very outgoing boy who loves everyone! He is a large dog who we believe could be a Lab mixed with a larger Hound breed. Currently, Freddy weighs about 70 lbs, but he is on the skinny side and we think a good weight for him would be at least 75 lbs. Freddy is a young and active dog who still has a puppy personality. He can get a bit jumpy when he is excited, but he is gentle about it. We believe he is already housetrained as he is very clean in his kennel and tries to hold everything until he gets a chance to go outside. When Freddy is in his kennel, he always carries a stuffed toy in his mouth and whines for attention. He would love to join a happy family! Freddy is good with other dogs and he tested non reactive in our cat room. He can go to a home with children 10 years old and older. If you are interested in adopting Freddy, Please Email us at Adopt@savingpawsct.org for an application! His adoption fee has been sponsored by our friends at Another Shot Coffee Roasters!
