Freya

This dog is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $200 if picked up in TN, $275 plus transport fee for out-of-state adoptions.

Freya is a gentle, soulful girl whose quiet bravery shows in the sweetest little ways. This 3.5-year-old Mini Australian Shepherd weighs 26 pounds and has beautiful blue merle fur, a thoughtful expression, and a moderate energy level that fits nicely into a peaceful routine. Freya is very much a dog's dog and takes comfort in the company of other pups. She enjoys walks, light hikes, and running around a securely fenced yard with her dog friends, and it is adorable to watch her instinctively bark and herd everyone out the door for yard time. She loves chew toys, happily de-stuffs plush toys, and feels safest relaxing in her crate, which she considers her cozy retreat. Freya is housetrained, crate trained, walks well on leash, and knows cues like outside and kennel. While she is very timid with people, it is incredibly heartwarming when she gathers the courage to take treats or allow a quick head pet. In her past, Freya escaped from her home and was hit by a car, resulting in a broken pelvis and a dislocated leg. She underwent surgery and has since made a full recovery, moving comfortably and enjoying her daily activities without issue. She does well with other dogs and cats and would do best in an adult-only home where things are calm, predictable, and respectful of her space. A quiet household with a securely fenced yard and at least one friendly dog companion is what she needs. She needs someone who will accept her exactly as she is - a shy girl who wants to hang out with other dogs more than people.
