Sweet Freya is looking for a home for the holidays. This spayed, happy, healthy and microchipped ~4 year old girl (age is an estimate) made her way into our foster care after her prior adoptive family of almost 2 years grew too chaotic for her to exist happily (toddlers can be tough for even the most seasoned of weims). Freya has lived very successfully alongside two Weimaraners in her foster and another doggo in her prior home, though in her forever home she would likely be just as happy as an only dog to soak up all of the love and attention if needed.

 Freya began her life in Mexico where she was being bred and neglected until one day a savior associated with another rescue spotted her, purchased her and the puppy she was somehow nursing while wildly malnourished, and brought the duo to the US (see photo of emaciated girl in her early days at end of photo list). Everything about this amazing lady is informed by that short story...she hilariously will slowly collect and horde all of the toys and treats in the front of her crate throughout the day until her people notice and redistribute the treasures (she doesn't guard them, she just wants to have them near), she is highly food aware/motivated (from years of starving) but has the gentlest of mouths when taking treats from your hand, when she is given a treat she almost always takes it and runs immediately into her wire crate to either eat it right that second or add it to her treasure trove for a rainy day. For all that she certainly endured in her early years you would think this girl would be fearful meeting new people, but that isn't the case, she loves affection and being around kind people, though she does want to be the one initiating the first contact with new people so she can decide if they are kind...which isn't an issue because literally anyone can call her name and she comes right up to them lol.

Other bits we know and have learned: Freya loves car rides, exploring new environments and she is always the first person out of a door or gate (she will quite literally spring out the door and immediately whip around and look at you as if to say "where are we going?"). She is not great on a leash without a gentle leader (see photo at beach for what a gentle leader is if unfamiliar), she has nice shiny white teeth and enjoys a good bone to chew, she is potty trained, healthy, loves her wire crate, spends most of her day lounging peacefully right up until its time to go exploring and then she springs to life, fetch is not something she has shown any interest in and "play" is usually interacting with a human or another dog. She has a full tail and you can definitely tell when she is happy because that thing gets swinging fast :) 

Freya has been an absolute delight to foster and we are confident she will lead a long happy life with a new family.

​***We are not the rescue which initially brought her to the US

​***She was relinquished to us because she and the toddler were simply on different wavelengths and there was not enough bandwidth for the household to train both the dog and child simultaneously. She and the other children spoke the same language and were fine (ages 5 to teen)
