Frida

My story

Meet Frida – A Resilient Spirit with a Heart of GoldFrida is a 5-year-old survivor with an incredible story. Rescued from life on the reservation, she endured the trauma of being caught in a coyote trap and bravely chewed through her leg to escape. Thanks to a compassionate rescue effort, Frida was given a second chance. Her injured leg was amputated, and she began the long journey of healing—physically and emotionally.Once feral and fearful, Frida has made remarkable strides. She now moves confidently around her foster home, easily navigating short stairs (2-3 steps) and the yard. She’s found comfort in the company of other dogs and enjoys their presence. Best of all, she now trusts her primary caretakers and allows gentle affection—something that once seemed impossible.Frida is a quiet, gentle soul who would thrive in a calm, stable home. She doesn’t need long walks or busy outings; a cozy bed, a secure yard, and a patient family will be her paradise. She’s not a dog who craves adventure—she simply wants a peaceful place to feel safe and loved.While she continues to make progress, the time is right for Frida to begin the next chapter in her forever home. With time, patience, and understanding, she will blossom into the most loyal and loving companion.Frida is ready for a family that will see her for the gentle survivor she is.
