Freddy's Story

Hi! I'm Freddy, and I've been told I'm the total puppy package—sweet, smart, and ridiculously adorable (their words, not mine...okay, maybe mine, too!).<br/><br/>I'm about 10 weeks old, weigh 12 pounds, and I'm expected to grow into a medium-to-large-sized dog. No one knows exactly what breeds I am, which makes me extra special—a surprise package!<br/><br/>My story started in Tennessee, where I was found all alone behind a Freddy's restaurant (that's how I got my name!). After a pit stop at a shelter, I hopped on my freedom ride to Illinois with Safe Haven Dog Rescue, and I've been living my best puppy life ever since.<br/><br/>My favorite thing in the whole world? Being outside! Give me a backyard, a walk around the neighborhood, or a future camping adventure, and I'm one happy pup. I love exploring every leaf, stick, and piece of mulch I can find. Nature is pretty amazing when you're seeing it through puppy eyes!<br/><br/>I'm living with another dog and two kids right now, and I love everyone. My foster sister is my hero—I follow her everywhere and would love a dog sibling in my forever home, but it's not required if you'll spend lots of time teaching me all about being the best boy.<br/><br/>I'm pretty polite for a puppy. I rarely bark, sleep through the night in my crate, know how to sit, and I'm doing an awesome job with potty training. I even ring a potty bell when I need to go outside! I'm smart, treat-motivated, and love learning new things.<br/><br/>I can be a little shy around loud noises or sudden movements, but with a little patience and encouragement, my confidence grows every single day.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a calm, affectionate puppy who's equal parts adventure buddy and cuddle companion, I think we'd make the perfect team.<br/><br/>So, what do you say? Ready to make me part of your next adventure?<br/><br/>Love,<br/><br/>Freddy (Professional Explorer and Outdoor Enthusiast)<br/><br/>Our standard adoption fee is $465. We offer a $15 discount for adopters who pay by cash or check, making the adoption fee $450.<br/><br/>The adoption fee includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at one of our participating veterinarians, age-appropriate core vaccinations, fecal test, deworming, current on flea and tick preventative, and microchip.<br/><br/>To ensure the best match for both our dogs and adopters, we require a fully completed adoption application, a phone interview, and a meet-and-greet with the entire household. Applications will not be reviewed unless fully completed. <br/><br/>Submitting an application does not guarantee adoption and does not obligate you to adopt; it simply allows us to begin the review process.<br/><br/>To request an application or for additional details, please email adopt@safehavendogsIL.org<br/><br/>Please note that the breeds and sizes posted in this biography are educated best guesses and are not guaranteed. <br/><br/>Safe Haven Dog Rescue reserves the right to approve or decline any adoption application based on the best interest of the dog.
