About Freya

Welcome Freya to BACDR! This lovely lady has some big shoes to fill, named after her powerful Norse counterpart. She's currently working on building her confidence and adjusting to new environments. Freya and her brother Forseti were discovered as strays in southern Ohio. While we’re unsure of their past, we know they are young—around a year old—with a promising future ahead. Right now, Freya shows a sweet but nervous personality. She can be shy and needs a gentle approach when meeting new dogs. However, she craves attention and affection from her human companions. As she continues to come out of her shell, Freya is soon ready to find her forever home. She will be spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations upon adoption. With an adoption fee of $350, Freya is currently being fostered near Columbus, OH. Email us at buckeyeacdrescue@gmail.com for an application!
