Meet Freeloader!

Furkids find their way to the loving arms of Col. Potter in many different ways. This little boy's journey definitely had many rescue and guardian angels watching over him to get him this far. The Rescue Team monitors Petfinder classified ads. We found one that had listed three dogs that had been found starving in an abandoned home, supposedly one was a Cairn. There was one small terrier and two Pit Bulls found. At first the rescue angel just took food and water to the dogs in the abandoned home, but after a period of time, it was apparent no one was coming back for them and she took them home with her and tried to find their owners or rescue or adoptive homes for them. You can draw your own conclusions of what a young terrier was doing with young, and apparently not vicious, Pit Bulls.

Enter Col. Potter. After having received pictures, it was obvious that the young, male terrier was indeed a Cairn. The rescue angel gave of herself once more and personally delivered him to our vet in Missouri where he will be boarded and vetted before moving to a foster home.

The famous comedienne Red Skelton had a character named Freddie the Freeloader who was a hobo but always had flowers to offer as a gift. This little boy doesn't have flowers, but does have lots and lots of love to give as his gift.

Please help me welcome Freeloader to CP!!! We believe him to be 6-8 months old and currently weighs about 10 pounds. He even seems to have a little bit of "red" in his coat.

Freeloader will be ready to move to his foster home next weekend and is in need of someone to share his love with while waiting for his forever home. If you would like to foster a rescued dog check out our foster facts.
