Freddy's mom Claire Stoneman adopted him when he was just a puppy. She was able to predict he'd become a big dog, but surprisingly, Freddy grew to far surpass expected measurements.

Freddy not only gets along well with his sibling, Fluer the female Great Dane, but he also behaves gently with Claire and her two babies. The kids love to play with Freddy because they feel more protected when the dog stays around them.
Claire shares that she feels happy and blessed to have Freddy in her life. However, raising such a giant dog cost her an arm and a leg. Freddy and his sister Fleur need a relatively large amount of food to keep them healthy. Their favorite diet includes roast chicken and peanut butter on toast in a snack, three to four snacks per day.
