My story

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

Hi I am Briar Rose! I am a sweet girl that is looking for a place to call home furever. I can be a bit shy and can scare pretty easily so ideally I would like a calm and quiet home where I can build my confidence.

FOSTER TESTIMONIAL: "Once Briar is comfortable with you she loves to get belly rubs, snuggles and loves that you play catch with her. She also loves to be trained, we trained the whole week with treats and she clearly knows now the words sit, stay, leave it, heel, no, paw and lay down. Briar also can stay by herself at home pretty well without a crate. I left her two days in a row by herself for 2-3 hours (with camera) and she just slept the whole time. We got to completely house train her and she doesn't chew or go anywhere she isn't allowed to. Briar also knows how to potty and pee outside and in a pad."

Dogs? I can be a little picky about my friends so I would really like to meet any other dogs in the home.

If you are interested in meeting me, Come on in! We are open every day 12pm - 6pm. Can't wait to meet you.

I'm also available for Foster-to-Adopt if you want to take me home before committing to fur-ever!
