Oh, let me tell you about this precious soul, Freddy! This incredible dog is nothing short of a miracle. When he was first rescued, he faced challenges that would make most underdogs wave the white flag. But Freddy? He not only survived; he flourished into the sweet, spirited companion we adore today! 🌟 Freddy's dream home is one that feels like a cozy cuddle – think soft carpeted floors, an array of cushy dog beds, and enough love to fill a room. He’s a delicate treasure who thrives on gentle care. While he wouldn’t mind a furry friend, he prefers a calm companion; no rambunctious rowdies are allowed! He truly deserves to be the cherished solo king of his castle or have equal amounts of slow-paced dog friends. 🐾 Estimated to be a wise 9 years young, Freddy is a delightful Shih Tzu mix. This charming pup has a ruptured eye, he’s battling Heartworm (but bravely receiving slow kill treatment), and he also has IVDD. After being treated at Texas A&M, Freddy is a superstar in the making! With continued physical therapy, he’s strutting around and can even handle potty time by himself! But don’t let that fool you; he will let you know when he needs attention or a wee break with a little bark. Here’s where the love comes in, folks. Adopters need to commit to starting physical therapy with Freddy’s vet (and yes, you can continue with his current vet if you’re in Houston.) The idea of future surgery for his ruptured eye is on the table, but we’re taking things one paw at a time. There’s no rush, and we’re just thrilled to finally seek his forever home now that we see how robust he is! If this lovable little fella has stolen your heart, apply to adopt him through the Buddy App! You won’t regret it, because Freddy is ready to love you back with all his little heart! ❤️ For any questions, make sure you email after applying through the Buddy App. Let’s give Freddy the forever home he deserves!
