After a rough start to life, this Shepherd mix is ready to leave the past behind and step into a brighter future... with you.<br/>Once he feels comfortable, Freedom forms deep bonds with his people. He’s sweet, silly, and a total goofball — known for hopping around the yard and zooming like a puppy. He loves food (who doesn’t?) and will happily engage with puzzle toys and enrichment games that keep his clever brain busy.<br/><br/>Whether he’s out on a walk (he’s amazing on leash!) or lounging after playtime, Freedom is all about connection — he just needs someone willing to go at his pace, earn his trust, and show him he’s finally home.<br/><br/>He can be nervous with new people, especially early on — but with time, patience, and love, he opens up into a loyal and loving companion who just wants to be by your side.<br/><br/>Freedom is looking for:<br/>• A quiet, loving home with structure and routine<br/>• A secure yard to safely enjoy his zoomies<br/>• A patient adopter who will let him build confidence at his own pace<br/>• A life full of treats, walks, and unconditional love<br/><br/>This big-hearted boy has so much to give — he’s just waiting for someone to give him the chance.
