About dogs named Fred

The following are 24 profiles of dogs named Fred from our database of 131 dogs with the name Fred.

• “Loves exploring and has short bursts of energy, and isn’t very fast 🤣 loves to play with other dogs but does better with medium to large to match his size, he doesn’t resize how much he weighs and scares little dogs sometimes. Matches other dogs energy for the most part, but gets very excited if the other dog is high strung/very vocal. He gets nervous easily and does best with easy going calm dogs that like to run and play“

  — Kassadee K.

• “I may have something going on in my head that no other dogs see. I am concerningly calm for a 6 month old lab. I LOVE cuddling more than food. I might love everything. I chew only what's given to me - I sometimes fall over but the vet says this is fine.“

  — Lindsay K.

• “Fred is a happy boy who loves his mom. He plays hard with our little. It honestly is like having two toddlers. He loves it when his dad and big sister play fetch with him. He enjoys teasing our two cats. Blue will sometimes even play back a little. He spends his days under mom's desk while she works, always with his head resting on her foot. Our family has 3 acres, and we call it our Creek Property. Open feild, with a wooded area, and Sugar Creek. But Fred likes to sniff new places sometimes.“

  — Mady R.

• “Fred is playful and friendly once he gets to know you. He is very stubborn and dominant. He is also extremely intelligent even for his breed. He is reactive, unfortunately, but he is getting better thanks to training.“
