My story

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

🌟 Meet Flynn: Stunning, Sweet, and Still Learning to Trust

Flynn is a gorgeous 2-year-old Husky mix with eyes that melt hearts and a spirit that’s slowly blossoming. He’s equal parts cuddle bug and adventurer—and while he adores his people and fellow pups, he’s still healing from a past we may never fully know.

Despite whatever hardships he’s faced, Flynn carries no bitterness. He’s incredibly gentle, but shy—especially around new people. Women and children tend to earn his trust a bit faster, though with patience (and treats), he warms up to men, too.

Flynn shines at the dog park where his playful energy comes alive. He loves romping with his canine foster siblings, going for walks, and just being part of the pack. When left alone, he does best with the comfort of another confident dog nearby.

🐾 Flynn’s ideal home includes:

• A patient, loving person who’s home for much of the day
• At least one friendly resident dog to help him gain confidence
• A securely fenced yard for sunbathing and outdoor joy

He’s neutered, fully vaccinated, on preventatives, and ready to find a family who’ll give him the time and love he needs to truly flourish.

If you’re someone who believes in second chances and celebrating progress, Flynn might just be your soulmate in fur.

This dog's adoption fee is $550.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption coordinators have conversations each applicant to ensure a good match for the pet and person/family, perform vet checks if there are current pets. Adopters must come to either the foster home or an event to meet the pet. If the dog/cat is too young to be altered, a deposit is taken and our spay/neuter coordinator follows up ensuring the procedure is done. Below is our link to our dog application. We also have a cat application but there is only space for 1 link.

More about this rescue

A kitten named Freckles, who was diagnosed with Feline Infectious Peritonitis (FIP), and a desire to help more at-risk cats and dogs find forever homes, were the catalyst that ignited Athena Reizakis to start Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue. While our main mission is to place animals in need in loving homes, we also place a special emphasis on the “underdog.” We will not let age or a medical diagnosis, such as FIP or heartworm, be a barrier in giving that animal the chance at the life they so deserve.

Freckles Foundation & Animal Rescue, founded in December of 2023, is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are a foster-based rescue with a volunteer network spanning across Maryland, DC, and Virginia. We are committed to creating awareness within the communities we serve and working towards the best interest of the animals in our care. It is not just about finding homes for pets in need but finding a home that is right for them.

Freckles Foundation works with shelters, other rescue groups, community organizations, and individuals to identify cats and dogs in need of rescue. Once in our care we provide these animals with necessary veterinary care and a loving, nurturing foster home until they are adopted. Cats and dogs receive vaccinations, preventatives, and spay/neuter (if age appropriate) prior to adoption. Our rescues are cared for in our network of volunteer foster homes and provided with food, shelter, socialization, training, and other necessary care while awaiting adoption.

We are funded solely by donations and adoption fees. We are 100% volunteer-based currently.
