Hi! I'm Freckles...

I belong to a family of four. I have a boy and a girl to play with, that is, when I'm not being overly excitable and jumping all over them. Sometimes they get rough with me, too, but I can handle it. I was once a pound puppy, but after I got back in shape I put on 10 pounds and now I'm one happy puppy.

My new family knows by now that my old family (most likely) got rid of me because I'm a compulsive chewer. I eat e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g: my doghouse, 2x4s, my toys, plants, my bed, rugs, my lead, electrical wires, my crate....you name it. But, I'm always sorry when caught.

Though I'm part Bassett, short and stocky, I am very agile and able to jump up onto just about anything. I'm quicker than a cat and I love to stalk birds, squirrels, and lizards. Those lizards are really fun because I actually get hold of them (my master doesn't like this because he says they eat bugs). I also have a friend named Fred. She is a very bold box turtle that I happen to be very curious about. My family can't leave me alone with her because they are afraid I will use her as a chew toy. Now, would I do that?!

Well, I'll be saying ta-ta for now.....being the athletic type that I am, and constantly on the go, I do need an occasional nap.

I hope you enjoy my homepage, and if you'd like to send me questions or comments you can email me here.
