My story

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

Meet Jake, a 10 ½ years young neutered Orange & White Brittany looking for a very special home to call my own!  
Jake is currently being fostered in Northern New York, but is really dreaming of a home of his own. Don’t let he’s age fool you he still has lots of Brittany puppy energy, curiosity and mischief making ability to give. He would love an active home where he gets to go on adventures and nice walks, as Jake gets so excited when the leash comes out says his foster mom. Jake loves being around people but can get pretty excited and jumpy at times so a new home with older, dog savvy children would be best suited for him. He also enjoys the fact his foster family works from home. So, Jake really hopes his new family also works from home, is retired, or will at least spend more time home then away too. Jake is crate trained but it does make him nervous and anxious.   
Jake is also quite the “talker” especially when he needs or wants something. His foster Mom wishes Jake either spoke English or she understood dog, so he could maybe tell her about his past and why he has some of the traits he does. Jake can be pretty set in his ways at times, like when it comes to sharing toys or things he’s not suppose to have. When Jake has a favorite toy, socks or other items that he’s not supposed to have, he will grab and keep it close. It’s felt he may have never had “things” of his own so now that he does he doesn’t know how to act, which is something his fosters are working on. 
Jake is not a fan of other dogs, his previous interaction with them have not been positive, so he now much prefers to be an only dog. Jake’s new home should also be cat free too, as he has the typical Brittany prey instinct when it comes to chasing small critters too. Despite his quirks Jake loves to snuggle, curling up in a lap and sleeping next to his fosters at night. Jake is housetrained, current on vaccines, heartworm negative, on prevention, and micro chipped too. So, now all that’s missing is a place to call home Forever! Is that your home? 
If so, please consider filling out an application for Jake/NY online at: http://nbran.org/adopt/adoption-application. Once your application is submitted the coordinator in the State where you reside will follow-up with you. Need to reach your State Coordinator, find their contact information here http://nbran.org/about/state-provincial-coordinators.
Jake’s adoption fee is 250.00 which will help NBRAN cover the vetting costs and other expenses associated with bringing Brits like Jake back to good health and readying them for adoption. Don't live in NY or close by, No Problem!  NBRAN also has a wonderful transport team willing to help bring Brits like Jake to their new family, up to 1400 miles with the adoptive family being responsible for the last 100 miles, at no additional fee. Still have questions? Contact NY Coordinator Deb MacSherry at debmacsherry53@gmail.com Or Jean Rand at jrand13@gmail.com, Thank you!
