My story

And just like that, we have six adorable puppies eight week old gorgeous puppies. Meet our three girls and three boys! These sweet and beautiful babies are thriving in foster homes, they have all put on weight.  Let us introduce you to Freya who's sharing a foster home with her littermate Heimdall. They're learning all about the resident rabbit and two cats while the resident dogs along with their young boy are out of town on vacation with family members. Freya and Heimdall are typical shepherd pups who follow their human, love snuggles and keep each other entertained while their foster mom is delighted with their antics.  Freya is the instigator of all play and shenanigans, the bestest snuggler and the biggest fan of treats. She has mastered the sit command and knows "off". They sleep in their crate together, covered for den like space and have access to the pen from their crates when they can't have eyes on them. Although they move in unison, following their person around the house and very facinated by the bathtub when their people are showering.  They are lovely and allow all handling since they get inspected all over their bodies to make sure they haven't picked up any errant foxtails each time they head outside to potty and play. Freya likes to be the center of attention especially if Heimdall is amidst a snuggle session.  All the pups potty promptly when taken outside frequently, leading us to believe that they were well taken care of and handled nicely in their original home. They also enjoy playing with toys, nibbling on human toes, and tugging on clothes for attention followed by frequent naps.  All of the puppies have received their first vaccines, been dewormed, and are healthy, chubby, and happy! Stay tuned for more updates. Freya will thrive in an experienced forever home committed to environmental exposure to continue the excellent foundation she's receiving in her foster home, ongoing training, and structure shepherd puppies need to grow into neutral adult dogs.  Have you checked out our YouTube channel? We would greatly appreciate your support by subscribing, liking, and commenting on the videos we share of our adoptable shepherds in action. You can also follow us on Instagram,  Facebook, and our newest Threads account, where we post plenty of news and updates about our shepherds. As a foster-based rescue, ShepHeroes is always in need of fosters. There are many shepherds in our local shelters who require our help for a fresh start. Would you be willing to open your home and share part of your life to help these dogs find new families? You provide the love, and we will provide everything else! Saying "yes" today truly saves a life. Complete this https://www.shepheroes.org/foster-form, and we will be in touch as soon as possible. We appreciate your consideration. ##2459150##

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Freya, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
