You’ll also see how lucky I was to share this unique journey with Fred through my stories.

“Fred came to Nick, Dave’s brother, as a six-weed-old puppy from Maine. At the time, we had no idea how much Fred would impact our lives and the lives of many others over the next 11 years. As time passed, it became clear that Fred had a purpose in coming into our lives, bringing love, joy, and smiles to everyone he met. Fred would go out of his way to meet people, and people would go out of their way to meet Fred.
