Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Ok, come on now!! We all need to cut Fred some slack, not everyone can take a great selfie. He is working on that but just does not have the right angle yet. Fred is a young guy, just a year old so we can let it slide. This little fella came all the way form Alabama to find his happily ever after, and we sure do think he is special. We appreciate a unique individual, think Grumpy Cat, he had that look that we all fell in love with. Fred could be the new face for uniqueness!! He is actually and adorable boy. He is still a pup, already about 50 pounds or so but very much a low rider. What an odd and adorable combination,Corgi... Basset Hound and German Shepard.(?)..that would that designer name be?? Hmmmm... Fred is all puppy, although he is pretty well mannered(housebroken!!) he can be playful/mouthy so should not be aorund small children. He does that puppy nibble on people he loves and it could scare a child, we are working on that tho! Fred iss very low positive for heartworms, which means he was recently infected. Great news--he is already begun a very gentle and slow kill treatment that has been 100% effective, so lucky it was caught very early. Fred is looking for a fun loving, playful, active and silly home--he is quite the character!!! No small children tho, and he will need a home that will not leave him alone for long hours, Fred is quite energetic. Despite his short stature he would make a great hiking buddy, he LOVES the outdoors!! His adoption fee is $250. Please email Kristine at joysparrows@gmail.com.
