Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Freya is a remarkable 2-year-old black mouth cur/shepherd mix, weighing in at 50 lbs. of pure love. Her journey began in southeastern North Carolina, where she was found by animal control with a broken leg. Against orders to “shoot” her, this compassionate officer chose to save her life and brought her to a rescue.
Initially facing the prospect of amputation, Freya’s luck changed when a Good Samaritan and fellow rescuer stepped in and took her to a trusted vet in Mount Olive, NC. Thanks to their care, Freya’s leg was successfully reset, and she is now making a full recovery and able to walk on all fours!
Freya has thrived in her foster home, where her playful spirit and affectionate nature shine through. She is great with dogs of all sizes and even gets along well with cats. This sweet girl loves being around her humans and is known for her gentle interactions with both children and adults. While she’s very affectionate, families with small children should ensure they are gentle with her.
Her foster family describes Freya as a big cuddle bug who adores being petted and cherished. She has an active side, too! Freya enjoys running, hiking, and playing fetch. She loves her toys and will happily drop one in your lap to initiate playtime.
Freya is well-trained and knows all her basic commands, including hand signals. She walks beautifully on a leash, is fully housetrained, and crate trained, making her a fantastic companion for any family.
If you’re looking for a loving, resilient dog who’s ready to fill your life with joy, Freya is the perfect match. This happy girl is eager to start her next chapter with a forever family who can appreciate her spirit and love her for the treasure she is!
Her adoption fee is $400 and Freya is vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and spayed. Please note that she is still in NC and will only be transported up north upon approval of an application.
