It's DECEMBER!!! (how did that happen?)

"Dear Santa Paws,
Please bring me a family who will love me forever and keep teaching me all things I need to learn. I really love all the treats that come when I do what my foster mom asks me to do (she says I'm smart), so more of this "training" stuff would be awesome! I love to run around outside so it would be great if my family spent lots of time outside and took me on lots of adventures--I'm very athletic! Most of all, I just want love!
Thank you, Santa!
~Crispin"

Crispin is really hoping Santa Paws comes early this year because the only thing on his list is to be with his Forever Family for his first Christmas!

Crispin sure does love sniffing around outside and exploring nature. He often picks up his front foot while he's exploring...maybe there's some Pointer in that mystery mutt??

Swipe right for your new best friend!
Crispin is really hoping his new "Barker" profile gets some attention and his perfect people will swipe right soon so the adventures can begin!

Crispin has really been hitting the town this week...breweries, wineries, the FRR 5k, sightseeing adventures, you know, just looking everywhere for his perfect people to adopt him. This little dude loves going on adventures...do you? Adopt Crispin and let him be the cutest adventure co-pilot ever!

11/26/2021

Crispin hopes everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving surrounded by friends and family. He definitely had lots of friends...but this handsome boy is still looking for the perfect family to join!! Maybe it's yours!

11/23/2021

Sunshine, sploots, and squeaky toys--nothing better! Crispin has got this whole puppy thing figured out.

Apply to adopt Crispin so you can have this cuteness in your life every day!

Mondays are RUFF! Just ask Crispin 😄

11/19/2021

Happy Friday from this happy little goober! Crispin is just a big ol' goofball ❤🍏

11/18/2021

Another happy family! Rave has gone to her forever home and you can just feel the joy! Happy tails Rave!

11/18/2021

Not sure what the cutest part is: the squished face, the mighty snore, or the tongue blep! Oh, sweet little Crispin. When you play hard, you sleep hard.

11/17/2021

Crispin is still looking for the perfect people to give him his forever home, but in the meantime, he is getting plenty of snuggles from his foster sister. Full disclosure, the snuggles usually happen after some very athletic puppy wrestling. If you've got a dog looking for a wrestling opponent/snuggle buddy, maybe Crispin is perfect for you!

11/16/2021

Another one of our little Apples left for her forever home the other day. Happy tails, Sweetie!

11/12/2021

Party boy, Crispin, will be making the rounds tomorrow, looking for his perfect forever people. This little buddy can't say no to meeting people, so he just couldn't choose which even to attend...so he'll be making appearances at both! Come meet the life of the party tomorrow in Raleigh and Durham

Crispin is still waiting for the perfect people to find him. Feel free to share his info with folks you know who might be looking to add a puppy to the family.

Crispin is very sweet and cuddly but also loves to play and he plays HARD. He's a very vocal pup when he plays (wrestling involves a lot of barking and puppy growling), and he sometimes gives a hound-dog howl when he thinks his foster mom has been gone too long, so apartments are not a good fit for him. He's doing really well in all of his training (potty-training, crate-training, leash-training), but he's still a baby so he's definitely still learning and will need people to continue to focus on those things. His ideal home would be with people who are active and outside a lot to take him on lots of adventures, and with people who are ready to be strong pack leaders and keep building on his training. He responds really well to training sessions, is very eager to please and very food motivated, so he should be very trainable for all kinds of things! He is extremely friendly and social and loves to meet new people and dogs.

Crispin is doing great learning how to walk on a leash like a good boy! He loves the extra time outside to sniff and explore. He's ready to be some lucky person's adventure buddy! Apply at www.freedom-ride.org

In Crispin's world, the hill behind his foster home is a slide. He scoots down on his belly most of the time and it's hilarious 😂

11/08/2021

Being the last little Apple at his foster home has its advantages. Crispin is getting tons of one on one attention and he is loving it!! So many snuggles! And look what he mastered today...Sit, Crispin! 🍎🐶😁

11/08/2021

Crispin is enjoying the beautiful morning by getting in some quality bubble time! Hopefully your Monday is as much fun as Crispin's 😊

Still looking for his forever home. Apply today!

It's been a big weekend for the Apple litter. 5 of our little apples left for their amazing forever homes. We are so excited for the pups and their families. Happy tails, Mac (now Ace), Liberty (now Cali), Tosh (now Snoopy), Melrose (now Brady), and Hudson (who is keeping his name)!!!

That means we've got 3 sweet Apples still waiting to be picked. 🍎🍏🍎

11/05/2021

The girls love their play time!

Sweetie (the brown girl) and Rave (with the dot on the top of her head) are both still accepting applications to find their perfect homes.

11/05/2021

Take a 3-minute break and get your fill of puppy shenanigans from our boy, Crispin! He is such a fun little guy who is still looking for a forever home. He'd do best with an active family who will give him lots of chances to be outside exploring the world, and with people who have experience with dogs. Apply for your newest adventure buddy today!
