Freya – ADODPTED

Adorable Freya became the collateral damage after a divorce and lost her home.  She had been adopted from the shelter, but her new owner chained her to a tree, where she repeatedly escaped and kept ending up at the neighbors where she felt safe. Her bowls and toys even found a permanent spot on their porch. Then Freya seemed to disappear, and it was discovered a friend of the owner’s dumped her at the shelter claiming she was a stray and unfortunately, he turned around and got another dog.  When the shelter discovered the true circumstances, the owner was fined and the dog was returned to him. No, we do not understand this decision. On a positive note, the owner agreed to give the dog to the kind neighbors.

This wonderful family has had Freya for several months and has worked diligently to teach her good manners, not to counter surf, to readily submit to her crate, and several basic commands.  She lives with a cat and two dogs but does like to chase the outside cats. When she forgets her manners, a reminder generally does the trick.  This family also provided all her medical vetting and had her spayed.  She loves her ball, food, and has learned not to bark excessively. Yes, win without a doubt, they have won our sincere admiration!  The family’s goal always was to help her find a forever home.  They said she’s a good dog and deserves a good home.  When we learned this story, we knew we also wanted to help Freya find that home.
