Update 02/09/11:
Freckles has blossomed into an extremely sweet, loving boy. His foster mom reports how fun it’s been watching him learn about living inside……..and Freckles has decided that he really likes it!
Housetraining has gone very well for Freckles, and his new home should not have any trouble continuing this trend. At his foster home, Freckles sleeps in a crate at night and has free roam of the house and yard during the day. He gets along well with other dogs, but prefers the company of people over dogs.
Freckles will have one more dose of medication for worms in about 10 days, and then he should be completely rid of those pests.
Sporting such a handsome coat, Freckles is aptly named. The best news to report: this boy is as pretty on the inside as he is on the outside!
Original:
Freckles came to MAESSR when his North Carolina family had some unexpected, major health issues. They relinquished five springers to MAESSR – Freckles 14, Cody 10, Panzee, Bambi, and Pluto because they knew we would make sure they had loving forever homes.
A dedicated MAESSR volunteer couple handled the long transport for these beauties bringing them to a temporary foster home in Virginia where they enjoyed MAESSR hospitality for a week before starting on another transport north to their foster homes.
Watch for more on Freckles as he settles into life in his foster home in Virginia.
