Freya's Story
If you are looking to add some spice to your life, then you may want to meet Freya! She is an 8-year-old, fabulous fawn Boxer who will keep you on your toes. Freya is spayed, current on her vaccines, and she's being fostered in Kirkland, WA.<br/><br/>Freya found herself in a shelter in eastern Washington after her previous owner became unable to care for her. Shelter-life was not good for Freya, so we were happy to welcome her into the rescue to help her find a new forever home. <br/><br/>Upon arrival in her foster home, Freya was fearful and anxious, but we certainly didn't blame her; everything was new and scary. But she has settled in very well and has been showing off her true Boxer personality. Oh, and don't let her age fool you this girl is not your typical senior! <br/><br/>Freya has a lot of energy for a gal of her age. She loves to play with squeaky toys, enjoys tug of war, and loves to run zoomies in the back yard. Her physical playstyle is one where she will actually try to box with her people, but if that's not your thing, then a quick and firm "no" or "off" will deter the behavior. She likely wouldn't be ideal in a home with young children due to her desire to rough-house. <br/><br/>Freya is fully housebroken and while she may not tell you when she needs to go outside, she's on an every 3-to-4-hour potty break schedule and it's working great for her; she's never had an accident in her foster home, <br/><br/>Freya is crate trained, however, being in the crate is not her favorite place to be. Sometimes she needs coaxing to get in it either with treats or walking her to the crate on leash (and then getting a treat). Because of Freya's very curious nature and her desire to get into things, it's best that she be crated when her people are away from home. She does experience some separation anxiety when crated and alone, and what has been found to help her tremendously is to cover the crate completely. She may still whine a little bit, but she's much calmer and can relax while her people are away.<br/><br/>In Freya's previous home she lived with another female Boxer and did great with her, however, since being in the rescue, she has not yet been formally tested with other dogs. In the shelter she didn't show much interest in the other dogs she got to meet, but since being in foster care, she shows a great deal of interest in them while on walks. Not in an aggressive way, but very intense when she sees them. Her foster family will continue to take her out and about in hopes of helping her feel more comfortable with things like unfamiliar sounds, new smells, and dogs. As far as other animals go, Freya has displayed a pretty strong prey drive toward bunnies and squirrels, so we don't think cats would be good housemates for her, although, we have not had any opportunities to cat-test her.<br/><br/>Freya's ideal forever home would be one where her person or people are home more often than not, so someone who works from home would be great for her. She does seem to enjoy going places and meeting new people, so she could easily be a road trip co-pilot and can either be loose in the vehicle or crated; she's good either way!<br/><br/>Overall, Freya is a great pup! She has a spunky and stubborn personality, is quite smart, and bonds quickly to her person. Just know that if you're looking for a senior Boxer who is going to lay around all day sleeping and who wants to just snuggle with you on the couch, that's not Freya! This girl is ready to go! And that means, go anywhere you are; whether in or out of the home.<br/><br/>If you think Freya is the pup you've been waiting for, then get your application in today - www.mustluvboxersrescue.com/adopt.
