My story

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

Helllooo everyone!! I’m Fred and, boy oh boy, am I happy to meet you! I love kids! I love dogs! I’m sure I’ll love you!

Now that I’m in my foster home, I walk to the bus stop everyday, sit like the goodest boy, and wait for the little people to get off the bus! I am so excited to see the kids I know and meet new ones! I am not shy! I love playing with them so much! I’ll play with big people too, though, I don’t leave anyone out! I get so excited to see my people that I even jumped a 4’ fence! For a minute I thought I knew how to fly! But I’m not a superhero, just a superdog!

One of my favorite games is chase – have you played this amazing game? When I catch you, I get to give you kisses! I mean, there’s nothing better than that! Well, cuddling might be just as good, especially if I get my favorite spot on top of the couch cushions! Want to watch a movie? I’m the teddy bear you need at your side (wouldn’t mind a bite of that popcorn though)!

I’m not just playful, though; I’m the goodest boy in lots of ways! I am learning so many important things – like sit, lay, come, and down (I’m working on down, but I’m getting better!). I love food and toys so I’m pretty much the easiest student ever! Since I love people, I love walks, the vet, going places; I won’t say no to anything! I love playing with dogs too – I’ll play tug with a dog (but not with people, I don’t want to show you up!). Instead of tug, we can play fetch – I’ll do that until you need a nap! Then back to the couch we’ll go!

Are you looking for a friend that loves running and playing, but also wants to cuddle through a movie? Would your day be better if you had a friend who couldn’t wait for you to get off the bus or walk through the door (watch out, I might fly!)? I’m just the friend you need! Let’s meet!
