Freddy isn’t your typical rescue dog and that’s exactly why the right person is going to fall for him.

Yes, he’s handsome. That might be what stops your scroll. But what makes Freddy special lives much deeper than his face. He’s quiet, thoughtful, and emotionally gentle. The kind of dog who watches the world before deciding he trusts it. And once he does? He fits in like he’s always belonged.

Is Freddy a cuddly dog? No.
Will he tolerate cuddles? Absolutely, he’ll lay there calmly and allow it.
Will he one day seek affection on his own? Maybe.

But that’s not why you adopt a dog like Freddy. You adopt Freddy because you believe in the quiet magic of trust being earned. Because you find meaning in routine, gentle coexistence, and the small wins. A relaxed body, a soft glance, a tail wag from across the room. Those are wins. Freddy is for someone who understands that love doesn’t always look like fireworks; sometimes it looks like peaceful companionship.

A quick moment for his “specs” keep in mind he is a rescue and we cannot guarantee age or breed but we believe Freddy Potato is a Husky mix approximately 1 year old and currently weighs 58 lbs. He has the classic Husky eyes though he is the complete opposite of a husky.

He is a dog’s dog through and through. for a best friend for your personal dog? Well you might have just found him. Freddy is currently fostered with a large and diverse pack including multiple dogs (all ranging in sizes) and four cats. Yes, cats. Freddy is excellent with them and completely ignores them, whether they’re lazy loungers or active kittens. He’s great with them all.

His play style is healthy and respectful. He doesn’t initiate play, but he happily matches energy. From romping, bouncing, wrestling gently, and throwing paws with dogs who enjoy that style. He can match it all. When play is done, he calmly walk away and enjoy the fresh air. He is incredibly tolerant and has even participated in a pack walk with 30+ dogs and did fantastic. Freddy is a dog’s dog through and through. Dogs are essential to his confidence and sense of safety, and a home with at least one other dog is non-negotiable. He melts seamlessly into a pack, following their lead in the house and yard, and never adding chaos. No matter how chaotic the environment gets. He is a peace-bringer.

Freddy loves routine and thrives on consistency. He learned his foster home’s rhythm in about a week. He’s not rambunctious, enjoys sunbathing, exploring the yard, and chewing on bones or sticks outside. Inside, he’s not destructive, he’s crate trained (and truly loves his crate it’s his safe place), fully potty trained, and has wonderful house manners. He is so mellow and overall low energy that a good romp in the yard with his pals and he’s already napping on his spot in the house the second he walks through the door.

Side note, all dog’s have that one thing that opens the door to their heart just a tad bit faster. It’s just figuring out what it is. Well, we’ve already figured that part out for you! One of the ways to this gentle boy’s heart and gaining his trust is through his stomach! Typical guy LOL. Freddy loves food and he’s not picky. He’s not going to run up on you and steal your food by any means. He’s still going to be that calm cautious boy but he can’t resist a yummy French fry, the smell of popcorn (hello movie night), or just dog kibble in general. He also takes treats so incredibly gently that his fuzzy lips almost tickles you. So keep you dog pantry stocked with yummy dog snacks and make sure your counters are leftover free (he’ll find it when you’re not looking) LOL!

At his core, Freddy is simply… easy. Easy to live with. Easy to train. Easy to trust. He doesn’t add stress, he absorbs it. A quiet soul. A gentle soul. A dog who makes life feel calmer just by being there. If you’re someone who finds joy in earning a dog’s trust rather than demanding it, Freddy may be one of the most rewarding companions you’ll ever know.

We are willing to test Freddy Potato with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.
