Freedom lies in being bold!

Name: Freedom
Age: 3 years
Weight: 46 pounds
Gender: Spayed Female
Breed: Belgian Malinois (ma-lən-ˈwä)

Freedom is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 3 year old, 46 pound, Belgian Malinois.        

When Freedom was a puppy her family put a collar on her neck. As she grew into an adult dog, the family did not replace the collar, leaving a mark around her throat. She’s been treated and her fur is growing back. Her difficult life didn’t change Freedom’s personality. She’s a sweet, sensitive, and affectionate girl who loves to snuggle and bury her face in your lap.

She’s a very smart dog with lots of energy. She will do well with an active family that will make sure she gets lots of exercise and socialization.

Freedom was transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through the FOCAS program.
