HAPPY TAILS: FREYA!!!!Carmen and family adopted FREYA from HBR just over a year ago! As she celebrates her Gotcha Day, we asked Carmen for an update on Freya! She provided the following: “Freya loves to wrestle with other dogs, and play keep-away with her humans. Freya also loves to eat ice. Freya regularly goes to doggy daycare and surprised us with her ability to swim. She has many dog friends at daycare and some dogs really really love her, but not all of them can swim. There is one particular dog that can occasionally get on Freya’s nerves. Instead of running away, Freya has learned the best way to get away from him is to go swimming, because unfortunately her friend can’t follow. She’s a heartbreaker! “When asked how she adapted to her new home, she advised: “It took her a few months to learn not to go potty inside the house. Very frustrating but we got there in the end. ”We asked if the family has any advice for potential adopters: “My biggest advice is to just be patient. Your new pup has likely already had many different experiences (good and bad) and they are now getting used to you, and your family. It may take them a bit of time to adjust and fully understand the new rules, but don’t take any difficulties personally. Keep consistent and be patient and you both will be better for it. We love Freya. She is such a sweetheart and we give a lot of credit to her foster family who had her before adoption. Keep up the great work HBR! ”Thank you for choosing adoption and giving Freya the best new family! We are so happy she is doing so well!
