    Freckles' Friends was organized in May of 2006 by Durward and Kim
    Brantley of Liberty, TN.  We received our 501c3 non-profit status
    shortly after.  Current board members are:  Durward Brantley, Kim
    Brantley, Pat McCracken, Lisa Lewis, PhD, and Dr. Mark Burke, DVM.  
    Our hope is to one day provide a quality, no-kill pet adoption center
    where homeless adoptable pets could be cared for in a safe and
    nurturing environment.  Our dream is to build a shelter that can be
    used as an educational facility for classes in pet care and dog-training,
    cat play areas with plenty of toys, windows with bird and/or squirrel
    feeders outside, separate quarantine areas for new admissions or any
    who may be ill, sterilization systems and extra ventilation to prevent the
    spread of disease.  There would also be a clinic room for veterinary
    visits and spay/neuter surgeries.  It will be a pleasant environment for
    pets and humans.  A separate boarding facility and thrift shop would
    help to raise funds for operating the facility.  All this sounds great but
    takes a lot of money.  Due to the current economic conditions, our
    capital campaign has been put on hold indefinitely.

    In the meantime, we are concentrating our efforts on reducing pet over-
    population by providing financial assistance to anyone who cannot
    afford the surgery, educating the public about the benefits of
    spay/neuter and the problems caused by pet over-population.  For

Freckles' Friends does not have an adoption program.  We do offer free courtesy listings to
area residents looking for homes for pets.  These pets are
not in the care of Freckles'
Friends and we cannot vouch for their health or behavior.  If you give one of these pets a
home, and we hope that you will, please take them to a vet as soon as possible for a full
checkup and neutering to prevent unwanted litters.
 
23 pets from low-income homes were neutered on
December 12th at the NLOL Spay Station in Liberty.  Each
visit costs Freckles' Friends $550.  See our Spay/Neuter
page for more information about this program and help by
