Adopting
Name
hi. i’m Freddie. 
i’m about two years old, i’m a Border Collie cross, and i’ve been in care for about four months. lately, i’ve decided that i’m ready to start looking for my forever home.
i’m not really sure how to explain myself except to say that **i have a very soft little heart.**
i’m gentle. i’m sweet. i’m friendly. and i really, really like being loved.
if you sit beside me, i’ll probably lean into you.
if you pet me, i’ll probably melt.
if you stop petting me, i may look at your hand like it has just committed the greatest betrayal known to mankind.
i just like being close to my people. 
i’m the kind of dog who would happily spend an evening curled up beside you after a nice walk, quietly keeping you company and occasionally reminding you that i am, in fact, still right there and available for additional affection.
i like other dogs, too! i’ve been good around dogs of different sizes so far. i wouldn’t say every dog becomes my best friend forever, but i think most of them are pretty cool. cats are still unknown to me.
i LOVE my walks, and i know **sit, wait, take it,** and kind of **stay**. i’m likely house trained, too! cars are still a little confusing to me, but i’m learning that maybe those big noisy things aren’t quite as scary as i think.
mostly, i’m just hoping there’s someone out there who wants a **very sweet, very gentle, very soft boy** to come home to.
someone whose hand i can rest my chin on.
someone whose feet i can sleep beside.
someone who will let me follow them around the house because i think being together is a perfectly reasonable activity.
someone who will look at me and think, *there you are. you’re mine.*
because that’s the kind of love i have to give.
the quiet kind.
the warm kind.
the kind that curls up beside you and sighs happily because it finally knows it’s home.
and yes…
Freddie Kruger enters your nightmares.
but I am a dream dog for the best love-filled nights. 
i’m not scary.
i’m just a soft little boy with a giant heart, four paws, and a whole lot of sweetness waiting for someone to call me theirs.
maybe that someone is you.
If you think you could be the right fit for me, Please fill out an application so my people can contact your people!
