Freddie Fox
Freddie Fox Finds Forever Family
aka
The Freddie Fox Tale...

Hi, I'm Freddie Fox. I want to tell you about my journey from being a puppy mill dog to the king of my castle and 'spokesdog' extraordinaire of the Mile High City.
It all started when my future mommy was 'slacking off ' at work and checking out the web. She saw a picture of me and thought I looked like a sad little 'ugly duckling' that needed a special home and lots of love. (I must have been pretty cute, or she wouldn't have driven 1700 miles to get me.) Jackie, from PMR, interviewed my future mommy, over the phone, and thought she needed me as much as I needed her. I'm really happy Jackie knew we were a perfect match!!!
The day that I met my mommy, I was a little afraid to go with her because I had spent a lot of time with my foster mom, Elaine and the other dogs in her care. Mommy was so happy when she saw me she started to cry. I wasn't sure I wanted to leave Missouri, for cold Colorado. But off we went. It was really a LONG trip and I had my first McDonald's hamburger, in Clinton, Missouri., as a special treat for being so good in the car. I had my very own bed for the long trip home but I was more interested in kisses and bonding with my forever mommy. It was a long drive! 'Grandma' came along, to help with the driving and they had so much fun with all of my antics until I fell asleep in the comfort and safety of Mommy's lap.
Since then, I have become a 'shop-aholic'. When I see Mommy putting on her shoes I start 'chirping' (some people call it barking) and do the 'Freaky Freddie Freak out' until she says I can go, too. She even bought me a special open top Sherpa bag. Whenever she puts it on the floor I jump right in....I'm a 'Ready Freddie'. She refuses to shop at any mall that won't allow me in. It is so much fun to surprize people when they realize I am alive and not a toy. (Humans get pretty goofy because I am sooo cute.) Everyone loves me...and I love being a star!!! Lots of people say we are like the characters from the movie 'Legally Blond' but Mama says I am much cuter than the dog in that show. You see my coloring has changed and I am getting a beautiful orange sable coat and growing out of the 'puppy uglies'. I love to be groomed and it is a good thing because Mommy makes sure we look our best before we go anywhere.
I also have a new best friend. Her name is Pearly and she is a two year old cat. We love chasing one another. We have so much fun!!!! I am also doing a great job at teaching Mommy to fetch. She now knows to pick the toy up and throw it everytime I bring it to her. Mommy is a very quick learner!!
As far as my 'spokesdog' status; I have increased the awareness of Puppy Mill Rescue and the need for change. Mommy and I always make sure to tell people to check out the site.
I just wanted to thank all of my friends at PMR because I never knew the forever family of Freddie Fox would be so Fabulous!
