Freckles, the Dog of the Day
Name: Freckles
Age: Seven months old
Gender: Female Breed: Terrier Mix
Home: Yuba City, California, USA
 
   This is Freckles. She is a seven-month-old Terrier mix. She lives in Yuba City California with her owner, Pom Pom The Clown. Freckles is learning to do the party circuit to entertain kids at birthdays and festivals and other special events. She has already been well received at a care home for the elderly, the California Prune Festival, a Labor Day Parade, a kindergarten class and a cub scout meeting.

    Freckles will help to educate kids about having and caring for a pet in the family. She does this with a number of special tricks. She will fall down dead to the question what happens when pets don't get their shots? And she will go to a "refrigerator" and retrieve her own sandwich, and bottle of mustard, when the kids are reminded that, "Your pet can't go to the refrigerator and get their own sandwich." She also shoots basketball and slides down a slide.
