My name is Brooklyn #6661!

Puppy Four (aka Brooklyn) is a 7 month old female Labradoodle puppy at about 33lbs who was surrendered to GRRAND from a woman who found her and her 6 other siblings one day in her barn. 

Brooklyn is a true sweetie and a little shy and she will follow you and when you stop moving she sits elegantly and patiently awaits a treat. She has mostly gray fur, with some black highlights and some brown highlights. She is treat motivated and would love obedience training. She likes to be hugged.

Brooklyn is in a foster home and we are told: "What a puppy!  Brooklyn has been with me and her GRRAND foster brother for a week and she fit right in quickly. She has a great personality - lots of cute puppy energy but loves snuggles and would be happy if you would pet her all day.  And even better, she is fully house trained and hasn’t had any accidents in the house.

Brooklyn wants to be close and follows me wherever I go. I was pleasantly surprised when I put a dog bed by my desk and she laid on it quietly while I was working (considering she’s only 8 months old). She loves to chase and wrestle with other dogs and will spend all day chasing a tennis ball too.

I crate her at night and she puts herself to bed when she’s tired. During the day, she’s contained in a play area if I leave but been steadily giving her the run of the house. I have LOTS of dog toys and she’s happy exploring different ones and has left my things alone.  My dog has taught her to shake toys and so far she hasn’t destroyed any.

Brooklyn will make a great family dog but may be too much for small children (ex. She will puppy chew on your hand or arm). She would love another dog sibling to play with as well as older kids to chase and play ball with. She is learning to walk on a leash but can try to run and is skittish with unexpected noises.

All this girl wants for Christmas is her furever family!"

**** Puppies are a lot of work, and if you are interested in one of these puppies and have children, you should check out GRRAND policies page before you read further… In a nutshell, GRRAND policies stipulate a few important things that may stop you from applying

 A: GRRAND will NOT place a puppy under the age of 6 months with families with children under 6 yrs old 

B: Any applicant with children under the age of 16, will require a home with direct access to a securely fenced yard… so this means no apartments or condos

Apartments and condos can also be tricky for adult only households, as puppies can be whiny and loud, and may make too much noise for the neighbors as well

 They will be looking for homes with fenced in yards and families with LOTS of time and patience to socialize and work with a puppy so they can grow up to be good dogs! Exercise and direction are a must for these little ones as a tired puppy is a good puppy!! They have boundless amounts of playful energy and need a constant outlet for it!
