About Freddo

Meet Freddo! Freddo is an 11-month-old Border Collie mix eager to find his forever home. This adorable boy weighs a compact 24 pounds and currently lives with a foster family in Midtown Atlanta. Freddo has a hearts-and-smiles personality that makes him a joy to be around; he loves everyone he meets. His coat is remarkably soft, and he stands out from many Border Collie mixes due to his low-shedding fur—ideal for snuggling without the hassle of constant clean-up. Freddo is a social butterfly; he gets along wonderfully with dogs, is great with people (including children), and shows indifference toward cats. He balances playful puppy energy with a deeply affectionate side, always up for a game of fetch followed by cozy cuddles. He’s fully crate trained and actively working on his potty training with quick learning. Freddo is neutered and up-to-date on vaccinations, making him the perfect blend of brains, beauty, and sweetness. He’s ready to share a lifetime of love and joyful energy with his new family. To adopt Freddo, your current pets must be spayed/neutered and up-to-date on vaccines. As a foster-home-based organization, Hero Dog Rescue needs an approved adoption application to schedule a meet and greet. Once approved, the foster family will arrange a time for you to meet Freddo. A home visit is required before adoption. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
