My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***Please consider being a foster mom and dad to a pet in need. It is a very rewarding experience and it will help save a dog's life.***

** Female, Cairn/Yorkie mix
** 1 yr, 13 lbs
** Almost housetrained (may do best with fenced yard and access outside)
** Crate trained
** Good with dogs, unsure on cats but happy to test
** Adoption fee $250

Health: Brittany is spayed/neutered, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, current on DHPP, Bordatella, and Rabies.

More About Me: Welcome our new arrival Brittany to rescue. Brittany is a very sweet girl. She is mellow and playful. She absolutely loves and craves attention, however she is still a little unsure of her surroundings at first. She is just waiting for the perfect home to call her own and feel safe. She has met several new dogs in rescue and gets along well with them. She even started to play and run around with a couple of her foster companions. She would likely do best with a fenced yard and regular access outside.

****FOSTER UPDATE****
Brittany is a magical blend of breeds with a soft coat and a long coarser outer coat, large eyes in a sweet face, and one of the sweetest, most affectionate, most playful AND smartest little gals. She’s been in rescue only about a month but has come so far from the scared, hand-shirking little pup into this confident, nose-nudging, playful little gal who just wants to be loved and hugged. She will make someone a perfect companion, hopefully also as a companion/pal to another small dog who also loves her and loves to play. She rides well in the car on my thigh and the car console. Though she still has great fear of big dogs, she runs like the wind through the woodland paths, trailing her long drag leash, and sitting at special places on our outings for treats with my other dogs. She really needs a stay-at-home, calm, understanding person who will take her (and hopefully a pal) for walks and take her the final steps toward housebreaking and through her fears and separation anxiety.

History: Brittany has arrived from an overcrowded shelter. NWIPR was asked to pull Brittany and find her a great home. We are so glad to have her join us in rescue.

NWIPR IS AN ALL VOLUNTEER REGISTERED NON-PROFIT 501c3 PUBLIC CHARITY
Your adoption donation is used to care for and vet the many dogs that enter into rescue from overcrowded shelters where their time is running out-ultimately they are on death row. Your adoption donation goes directly to the care of the many dogs that enter into rescue. All dogs leave rescue vaccinated, sterilized, microchipped, wormed, flea treated, and medically checked out. In some cases they receive dentals, ear flush, surgeries, and so on to ensure that they are healthy and ready to be adopted. Your adoption donation is very much appreciated and needed to help care for the many needy dogs that enter into rescue. New adopters receive a FREE exam coupon at a local veterinary clinic in Lynnwood OR a $30 care voucher to a veterinary chain (so be sure to ask about these coupons if you are interested).

NOTE: Please do not email for more dog info. This is all the info available until approved application is received and then you can talk directly to that dog's foster home for further info. Thank you!

NWIPR's adoption process includes completion of an adoption application, a vet check, screening, in person meeting, a home visit and a lifetime adoption contract. NWIPR is the pet's advocate and will select the most suitably matched home for the dog's general and unique needs, therefore adoptions are not done on a first come first serve basis. We reserve the right to refuse service and adoption for any reason.

PLEASE NOTE: The information contained within this pet's biography is based on observations from the current foster home. NWIPR is very honest about the pet's behavior and needs (and provides up to date information), we cannot guarantee they will behave in the same manner in a different environment with new owners as individual household dynamics vary greatly.

CONSIDER FOSTERING A DOG
***Do you or someone you know have the desire to help a rescue dog? If you have a loving heart, dog experience, a safe and secure yard and the notion to make a difference, please consider fostering a rescue dog. There are MANY dogs that we just do not have room for and just one person can make a world of difference to a dog that needs a safe place to rest his or her weary paws.....***
