Hi, I'm Fritz, and I'm pretty new to this rescue stuff, but let me tell you-I'm loving it! I got a bath, good puppy food, clean water and a comfy please to sleep. Before all that, someone dumped me and I wandered up to a home looking for help. Thankfully, some kind people took care of me until my foster mom arrived. Life is getting better every day! I'm a happy boy who's learning all kinds of new things. There's this thing called a television that I just can't figure out--I sit there and tilt my head from side to side and perk my ears trying to understand it. And air conditioning? Wow! Whoever invented that deserves an award. I'm all about staying cool these days.

Fritz is approximately 4 months old with a big heart to offer and a bright future ahead of him. He LOVES CHILDREN, RIDES QUIETLY in the car like a champ and gets along wonderfully with all seven dogs in his foster home. Like any puppy, Fritz occasionally thinks a shoe is a fun toy and may drag one around the house, but that's all part of being a growing puppy. He is doing great with crate training, and house training is going well.

One of Fritz's most unique features is his BEAUTIFUL MARKINGS. It looks like he has angel wings behind his shoulder blades or maybe shoulder pads like a football player. Combined with his HANDSOME face and those incredibly SOFT EARS that perk up and fly in the wind he's quite the showstopper. He does not yet know what toys, balls, or many of the fun thing's puppies enjoy are all about but he's eager to learn. Fritz is also working on leash training.

Fritz has this cool walk (his foster calls the thunder Shepherd walk) like all those German Shepherds have or Belgian Shepherd Malinois. He is not a hyper puppy and is on the CALM side, follows his foster mom everywhere and wants to be part of the family. The four boys next door ages 5-13 are his favorites always excited to greet them. We can always do more video once we receive your application to see this amazing boy!

Fritz is YOUNG, ADAPTABLE and ready to learn everything he needs to become a wonderful lifelong companion. He will be LOYAL, LOVING, SWEET, KIND pup to join in family outings and adventures. If you feel like you can provide a loving forever home, please contact Freedom Street Rescue.
