Miss Freya is a truly special soul who is fully or mostly blind and likely hard of hearing or deaf. She needs a patient, loving adopter who understands her unique needs.
Freya is a sweet, silly puppy who truly shines once she feels safe with someone. She is energetic and playful, confidently moving around a room and adapting remarkably well to new environments despite her lack of vision. She is incredibly affectionate and loves being close to her people. Freya is about 7 months old and currently weighs 28 pounds. She is still growing and is expected to be a medium-sized dog.
Ideal Home
Freya would do best in a home with either no other dogs or one calm, well-matched dog. She enjoys the company of other dogs and often feels more secure when another dog is present, but because she cannot read social cues, interactions can sometimes be confusing for her or for other dogs. An easygoing canine companion who can help guide her would be ideal. She is presumed to do well with children and enjoys cats, often following them around. This active to semi-active home should be prepared for her energetic spirit.
Ongoing Health
No specific ongoing health conditions are mentioned beyond her visual and auditory impairments.
Training & Support
Freya shows some separation anxiety and should not be left alone for long periods. She is currently working on crate training and building skills to help her succeed in a forever home, recently sleeping well in the crate overnight. She is learning "sit" and walks nicely on a leash, responding well to cues from people and other dogs. She is also great in cars.
