Frida

Hi, my name is Frida! I'm a chunky lazy potato dog looking for my forever home. I'm a very shy girl who has come so far learning to be ok living so close to humans over the past 6 months in my foster home. I am in need of a very patient family who will respect my boundaries and love me for the unique hilarious potato that I am. Here are some fun facts about me: I always need to be the last in line when we're on walks or exiting the house. I will rearrange myself at all costs to be behind you - you're the confident human leader! I have built my own routine that I follow - when it gets late, I am off to bed! I may come out and judge you if you haven't gone to bed yet like I expected you would, but then I'm back off to my bed again! I love to judge people from my perch on the comfy couch - I have the most expressive eyes and you'll always feel a bit like the HR department is monitoring you. I love to eat my snacks when you're not looking or once you've made me feel safe and comfortable. I have hypothyroidism and will take a thyroid medication daily for life. This is a very easy condition to manage with my daily pills that I eat readily in pill pockets and with bloodwork every 6 months to check on my thyroid levels. I am also on daily prozac which has helped me get out of my shell a bit more. I like to go on my short walks in my quiet neighborhood (my legs are pretty short and my body quite round so I'm not the most athletic!). I spend my day on my favorite corner of the couch chiling while my foster parents are at work. At night, per my schedule, I like to put myself to bed in the bedroom in my crate around 8:30 - I come back out for my night walkies and then go straight back to bed for the night after walkies. I have recently started doing some silly snoring. I sleep quietly in my crate all night and in the morning after morning walkies head back to my post on the couch! I have lived with many other dogs and at a previous foster's home I would play with some of the dogs. Overall though I have a lowkey vibe and I haven't engaged with any of the more playful dogs in my current foster home - I have appropriately corrected some of the younger puppy energy ones who bother me while I'm doing my snoozies. I think I would most enjoy living in a home with another confident chill dog. I'm looking for an adult only home or a home with teenagers that are dog savvy given my scared nature ***All animals listed on our website are in private foster homes. To arrange a meet and greet with a dog, you MUST fill out the adoption application so that it can be sent to the foster parent for review to determine if your home is a match for the dog. If a dog receives multiple applications, we operate on a best-fit basis, not first come first served.***
