Please read our Frequently Asked Questions and Adoption Processed Explained documentation. _________ B I O ______________ Name: Freddie Barkury Size: ~Small, range: Up to 25 lbs Adoption Donation: $250 (applicable sales tax included). Adoption fees may be paid by cash or check.  Other:  Neutered Male, Vaccinations current, Microchip ** Freddie has been diagnosed with a grade 3 luxating patella of both knees. This means his knee caps luxate medially and do not stay in the patellar groove. This is a common orthopedic issue in small breed dogs. At this time it is not painful and does not cause any trouble and surgery is not recommended by his veterinarian. Some dogs will live with a medial patellar luxation their entire life with no problems, however in some dogs it can be progressive and surgical intervention may become necessary. Freddie Barkury has stadiums full of fans! Foster Home Feedback 12/1/24 Temporary Care Feedback: We had the pleasure of dog sitting Freddie Barkury over the Thanksgiving holiday. How has this sweet boy not been gobbled up yet?! Freddie B is very good with kids and our 2 small dogs. In fact, this guy would prefer to have a friend with him all the time. He would get anxious if he thought he was going to be left alone. When I left for work early in the morning he would pace, bark and howl at the door until my husband would come out of the bedroom to show him someone was still home, then he would settle down nicely and go back to sleep. Freddie B did great while taking potty breaks outside. He has great cues to tell us he needed to go (barking at the door). He loves belly rubs and lots of attention. Freddie B did seem quite picky when it came to his food. If table scraps (meat or veggies) were not mixed in with his soft food, he would not touch it. He is a super sweet little pup who just needs someone around to keep him feeling safe. We loved our time with this guy. 10/5/24 Foster Feedback: Freddie is doing great! He is currently on a wet/dry food mix and is a few teeth short from when he first came to stay. He did very well recuperating from his dental, and is ready for his forever home! Freddie loves to cuddle and still has a penchant for human food (I give him peanut butter in his kong, cheese as a treat, and he loves chicken). He loves to sniff all the things to get the details on the neighborhood. Sometimes I think Freddie is playing detective, lol. He is not a big fan of his crate and has full access to my apartment. Freddie is dealing with some separation anxiety, which is normal, and that will ease with time. In my opinion, this this the type of dog that everyone looks for when adopting. Freddie is fully potty trained, smart, does well with meeting people, some dogs are questionable (which is normal), and loves to be near his human. 9/16/24 Foster Feedback: Freddie is such a great companion! He definitely has the Chihuahua attitude, and is well behaved. He likes to go for short walks and play a little bit with his stuffed animals. Freddie is a big fan of human food (chicken, carrots & peanut butter) and we are working on adjusting to dog food.To view additional dogs available for adoption, please see our website: www.4luvofdog.org December 2, 2024, 8:24 pm
