About Freckles

Freckles has not had a ton of daily people time, but with those he knows, he’s only ever been loving. He burns off energy with puppy zoomies and shows all the signs of turning into a loyal companion, especially for someone who enjoys an active, playful dog. Freckles grew up with his siblings after their mother was taken in late in her pregnancy—they were all born on February 27th and have blossomed into playful, sweet pups. You’ll notice some Merle coats and blue eyes among his siblings, with Freckles standing out as an easygoing, goofy guy who still has plenty of learning and bonding ahead. He’s a pitty mix, according to his mom’s background, and he looks to have some hound in his genes—floppy ears and all. If you’re looking for a social, energetic dog who will learn to settle in and become your sidekick, Freckles brings real potential. He’s ready for a family and gets along well with children and other dogs, but does not get along with cats. All initial vaccinations are done, and you’ll need to keep his neuter contract in mind as he grows. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
