Story
Meet Freddy!
Freddy (short for Mr. Frederickson) is a handsome, senior Pomeranian gentleman weighing just under 10 pounds. It's a good thing he's petite, because his favorite thing to do is climb right in your lap and snuggle for as long as you'll pet him! He has adapted very quickly to the routine in his foster home and is incredibly eager to please. While people are his first love, Freddy is also friendly with other calm dogs of all sizes, and has looked to his foster siblings to learn where all the good napping spots and treats are. He likes his space, though, and will let a dog know if they come too far into his personal bubble while he's trying to relax. Freddy spends his days snoozing in comfy dog beds and patrolling the backyard, making sure to chase any rabbits out. He can be a little noisy while patrolling, but responds right away when you call his name. Freddy is fantastic on a leash and really enjoys his daily walks through the neighborhood. He rides well in the car and would be up for any adventures, especially if they involve pup cups! Freddy is housetrained, although since he was only recently neutered he still marks occasionally but this seems to be improving. He doesn't mind sporting a fashionable belly band in the meantime. Freddy hasn't met any cats, but he is a friendly guy and would likely be fine. He has been great with the children he's met, although he startles at loud noises and sudden movements so living with older children would likely be best for him. The ideal home for Freddy would be either just him (so he can soak up all the love and attention!) or with one or two calm dogs, and with people who are ready for a lot of cuddles. This cheerful, loyal boy can't wait to meet you!
*Freddy is being fostered in Madison, WI.
