Meet Freddie! This pup is all the things: he’s cute + cuddly, frisky + funny, playful + (mostly) polite. And, he has every shade of pumpkin on his face. Speaking of face, he loves a good face rub, and a good neck rub, and he has several tickle spots on his belly. The boy loves to be loved!

This cutie pie enjoys playing with his biological brother, Franklin, and any foster sibling who will play with him. He does a good job respecting the boundaries set by his grumpy, older foster siblings. He enjoys meeting new people, especially if it means extra love + attention. He thinks his foster family is pretty great & enjoys being with them, even if it means being toted around by the three-year-old. If they take a walk in the backyard, he likes to go exploring with them. Occasionally, his genetics get the best of him and he playfully nips at the ankles, but a firm “No, Sir” deters him. Actually, he responds very well to a simple, but firm “uh-uh” when he’s engaging in any less-than-desirable puppy behaviors.

Freddie is intelligent and wants to please his people. He does very well in a crate + is being trained in going to the bathroom outside. He enjoys his kibble, scrambled eggs, pumpkin, and any tasty treats. Toys are great fun for him, too. He sleeps in the funniest positions, and if you talk to him in various pitches, he’s sure to make you laugh at all the ways he will cock his head.

Freddie is a good-natured pup, who will be a blessing to any person or family who chooses him.
