BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - This week’s Pets with Potential come from Passion 4 Paws.

Freddie is a 2 1/2 year old, 80-lb, medium-plus energy dog with a social and outgoing personality who gets along well with people of all ages and other dogs. He is potty-trained, crate-trained, and knows basic commands like Sit, Shake, and Stay. Freddie needs an active home without cats, preferably in a rural or quiet suburban setting where he can focus on training without distractions.

Sally is an 11-month-old, 42-lb sweet girl who loves snuggling on the couch and is house-trained and crate-trained. She knows Sit, enjoys walks on leash, and loves playing with other dogs her size or bigger. Sally is not suitable for homes with cats or small dogs due to her chase drive, and she’s looking for a loving family where she can get plenty of attention.

Bucky is a 3-year-old, 57-lb, intelligent and loyal dog who is quiet and relaxed inside, fully crate-trained and potty-trained. He needs an active, experienced home that can provide structured exercise and consistent training, as he is mouthy and not suitable for small children. Bucky walks well on leash, knows commands, and has experience with e-collar training while seeking a dedicated human companion.
