Freya, a 3.5-year-old pit bull mix, has been waiting patiently at the Harford Humane Society in Fallston, Maryland for her forever home. After spending months in a foster home, the playful and cuddly dog is now available for adoption, with the shelter highlighting her friendly personality and good behavior.

Why it matters

The Harford Humane Society is working to find loving homes for the many dogs and animals in their care, especially as the spring season often brings an influx of surrendered pets. Freya's story showcases the rewarding experience of adopting an adult dog who is already house-trained and has a calm, affectionate temperament.

The details

Freya has been living with another dog in her foster home, and the shelter says she would do well in a home with older children. However, she has a strong prey drive and should not be placed with cats or small animals. The shelter describes Freya as the "perfect blend of playful and energetic" who also loves belly rubs and lounging on the couch.

  • Freya has been at the Harford Humane Society for "months and months and months".
  • The shelter is open from 11am to 6pm on weekdays and 10am to 5pm on weekends.

What they’re saying

“Freya, she's about three and a half years old, and she has been with us for months and months and months. She's been in a foster home, so we do know an awful lot about her. She is pretty much the perfect blend of playful and energetic. And then she's cuddly and she's a couch potato. She loves her belly rubs.”

— Aaron Long, Representative, Harford Humane Society
