Freckle's Story

Meet Freckle! Freckle is a joyful 7-year-old, 45 lb Queensland Cattle Dog looking for her forever home. Loyal, loving, and always ready for adventure, this sweet girl will make the perfect companion for an active family. About Freckle: * Age: 7 years * Weight: 45 lbs * Breed: Queensland Cattle Dog Personality & Behavior: Freckle is a happy, smart, and eager-to-please girl. She loves trail runs, hikes, and outdoor adventures-her excitement is contagious as she dances and prances when she sees the hiking gear come out! At home, she's a loving cuddle buddy, often leaning against your leg or snoozing on her bed nearby. Like most cattle dogs, Freckle has a natural herding instinct and may give a gentle "nippy nip" or poke to let guests know they're on her turf. She's protective of her people and her "sister" dog (who is blind), but with planned introductions, she can learn to be comfortable with other dogs. She's been great with her owner's sister's small dog during visits. Freckle also coexisted peacefully with a cat, though her playful herding might not be every feline's favorite. Training & Habits: * Knows SIT and STAY with hand signals * Enjoys car rides, camping, and beach walks * Plays hard outdoors but settles nicely indoors * Barks appropriately at the door but not excessively * Can dig if left alone in the yard * Loves to be near her people, both outdoors and relaxing inside Freckle is deeply bonded to her humans and thrives when included in daily life. She is best suited for an active household that understands and appreciates the loyalty and energy of a cattle dog. Why She Needs a New Home: Freckle's current owner is facing a serious change in living circumstances and medical challenges in the family. While loved immensely, Freckle's joyful energy and protective nature are no longer the best fit for the household. She deserves a home where she can be fully herself-loved, active, and part of the family adventures. If you're looking for a devoted companion to hike, run, camp, and snuggle with, Freckle is ready to be your heart dog!

Okandogs's Adoption Policy

Our screening process is designed to ensure a good home for every dog. References are checked. If we have an application ahead of time and are able to pre-check the references, the dog may be able to go home at the end of the adoption day’s “meet and greets” with the potential adopter if the full process has been completed. It is REQUIRED that ALL people and dogs with whom the adoptable dog will reside do a meet and greet. The meet and greet is for the dog’s benefit as well as that of the family. We need to see that the dog is comfortable with and appropriate for all individuals in the family for the best possible outcome. Factors such as hours alone, methods of confinement, experience and needs of the particular dog - exercise, medical, and behavioral – are all considered for placement. We will go over all information in the dog’s adoption packet when the contract is signed.

Our Mission

We are dog adoption coordinators for the Okanogan County region of North Central Washington. We cover a huge geographic area that has absolutely no public funds to support any kind of dog rescue or care. We are often times the only chance these dogs have of finding a home or receiving any medical care. Please visit our webs...
