PetHarbor.com: Animal Shelter adopt a pet; dogs, cats, puppies, kittens! Humane Society, SPCA. Lost & Found.

Freckles is a senior boy ready for his forever home. He is eager to please, extremely friendly and listens well. He likes to fetch and run, so an active person/family would be ideal. He is crate trained, potty trained and wants to be your new best friend.

He does have a high prey drive, so squirrels beware. He didn’t quite know what to do about our neighbor cat who walked by him, so introductions might be possible, not 100% about cat interactions.

He ignores turkeys, but is anxious to meet other pup friends. Best to have him on a harness if you are not a runner, he will pull - we are currently working on that.

I also went on a Doggie Day Out Adventure with a volunteer on 2/24 and had a great time! Here is what my volunteer had to say about our adventure!

"We went out to the Natomas Fish Hatchery and walked from there to Lake Natoma, which was populated with walkers, runners, boaters, families, fishermen, etc… Freckles, as I mentioned earlier, was great on leash! He seemed to enjoy the variety in terrain, all of the outdoors (including ducks and other birds), trails, including stepping into the lake a time or two! A woman stopped and chatted, wanting to know more about Freckles. We were out exploring most of the day. We did stop by Starbuck’s on our way back to the shelter for triple “pup cups!” Again, I hope that Freckles enjoyed his day out and that he may find a forever home soon."

I went on another Doggie Day out adventure with a volunteer on 3/9 and here is what they had to say!
"Freckles is such a sweet and affectionate pup. He is a model car passenger, and easily got in and out of the car without any complaint. Freckles is very quiet, and was not reactive to other dogs, cars, people, and even birds. He loves to be pet, and melts onto people petting him. Freckles enjoyed adventuring in Land Park, Green Acres, and New Glory Brewery. Despite the crowds, he remained very calm throughout! Freckles already knows sit, and quite good at name recall. He loved treats of all kinds and he loved being showered with pets and affection. Freckles would be a perfect buddy to accompany any adventure!"

I went on another Doggie day out adventure with a volunteer on 4/27 and here is what they had to say!
"We began our adventure in Historic Folsom. There was a fair going on with lots of outside booths and people mingling about. From there we got on the trail at the bridge over the American River and hiked for a few miles. Freckles is very friendly and affectionate. He is adventurous and curious and has great stamina for an “older gent!”
