My story

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

Briggs is a striking and gentle Shepherd/Lab Mix who is just 8-9 months old and discovering the world with a sweet and eager heart! He is a playful best friend yet also had a calm, soulful side that loving more than curling up next to his people. 

Like many puppies who didn't get the best start he's learning what love, safety and a routine are.  Briggs is blossoming into a devoted, joyful companion who will make a wonderful addition to any family. Briggs and his brother, River, grew up as a strays that were both held in a rural pound for months. When their time ran out and they were scheduled to be euthanized for space, Haven was able to pull them just in time

Briggs is thriving with potty training, discovering the magic of toy and slowly finding his confidence. He enjoys walks and does great on a leash. He is still a little shy with new experiences and people, but once he warms up he won't stop asking for belly rubs!

This handsome 50 pound boy is crate trained, gentle and eager to bond deeply with someone patient, loving and consistent! If this sounds like he could be your perfect match to bring the joy to your home, please apply at www.HavenAnimalRescueNebraska.org

We do not have a facility. All of our animals are in volunteer foster homes. Once an application is pre-approved (contingent upon a home check) we will contact applicants that are a good match and set up a time for a meet. At that time we are happy to answer all of your questions. No inquiries prior to that please. All of our animals are spayed/neutered, examined by a vet, up-to-date on vaccinations, on heartworm and flea/tick preventatives, and microchipped. We adopt our animals as strictly inside companion pets. We will do a veterinarian reference check and a home safety check. We are located in Omaha, NE and we do not ship our animals. We are all volunteers so please be patient with us. Our requested adoption fees help go towards medical expenses, food, transportation, toys, and other supplies for our animals. We are a state licensed, 501c3 nonprofit rescue and the adoption donation may be tax deductible for you.  Thank you for choosing adoption!!
