Who is Freckles?
My name is Freckles and I was 9 years old in 2005 when I was adopted by
Durward and Kim Elise Brantley.  My former family didn't want me anymore
and my time was running out with the group that was fostering me and trying
to find me a new home.  I was very sad and confused.  I still don't
understand why they didn't want me anymore.  I'm a really good dog.  Then
the Brantley's found me and boy did my life change for the better. I had a lot
of emotional problems and it took me quite a while to get used to being
queen of the house.  I couldn't get over them letting me bark!  I even get
treats and baths and get petted all the time.  I wish all dogs could be as
lucky as me.  


I convinced the Brantley's to get involved in helping pets in our area and
that's how Freckles' Friends began.  Right now, there is no place for animals
to go in this area where they will be loved and cared for without knowing
that they only have a few days to find a family or be killed.   We had a foster
program for a while but it was taking too much away from our spay/neuter
programs and the board decided it was best to focus on getting more dogs
and cats fixed so that this community can one day be a no-kill community.  
Kim gets calls every week about pets that have been dropped off &
abandoned.  I feel so sorry for them.  Most of the time, the caller cannot
care for another pet.  Kim helps as much as she can by posting free listings
on this web site and sending out emails for lost or found pets.  

We can't do it all - but we have to do what we can do.   We really need your
help.  Be sure to check out my blog for weekly updates on calls that come in
to our call-in line.  Kim recaps the calls for me every Monday.  You can find
Freckles' Friends on Facebook and MySpace too!

THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
