My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Freddy is available for adoption through Needful Souls Dog Rescue in Baltimore, MD.

We rescued Freddy from a shelter in Maryland where he was surrendered by his family because another baby was on the way and already had other kids under the age of 3 years old. This little guy was tormented by these kids and was snappy around them.

Freddy is a fearful dog and would do best with an owner who can allow him to come around his own terms. It only took him a few days to become a Velcro dog and follow his foster mom everywhere. He is a total love bug and likes to cuddle next to her. He is really a sweet boy once he knows he is safe and no one is going to hurt him.

Freddy is an 8-year old Maltese mix who weighs around 12 lbs.
He is micro-chipped, neutered, up to date on vaccines, on heartworm and flea/tick prevention.
This handsome fella is house- and crate-trained. He walks well on the leash.

Due to being a fearful dog, Freddy will not do well in a home with a lot of commotion or small children. Freddy would do best in a calm home with adults and possibly older children age 12 and up.

Freddy currently lives with other dogs and does well with them. He has not come out of his shell enough yet to play with them.
