My story

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

Gussie is a three-year-old Orange/White 30 lb neutered Brittany Spaniel with a heart as warm as his coppery spots.  He is utd on his vaccines, neutered, healthy, heartworm neg and on prevention.

This sweet boy is the full package: smart, eager to please, affectionate, and wonderfully people-focused.

Gussie is the type of dog who always wants to be near his person. He’ll walk at your heels, shadow you from room to room, and happily settle close by for downtime. He’s quick to learn and loves working with his humans, making him a great match for someone who enjoys training or simply wants a loyal companion by their side. Gussie would thrive in a home that can offer him both mental and physical stimulation, plus plenty of love—and he’ll give it right back.

Like any good Brittany, Gussie loves balls, fetch, and anything that lets him stretch his legs. After playtime, he relaxes beautifully and is content to hang out quietly with his family.

He enjoys walks, sniffing adventures, and being part of whatever his people are doing. He’s friendly with new folks, loves attention, and has that classic Brittany sweetness that melts hearts instantly.  He gets along with dogs and would love a yard to hunt for the adventures that hide in your yard.

If you are looking for a hunter, this is not your guy.  Gussie is gun shy and was abandoned and starved due to not being a hunter.  If you are looking for a love bug to be your sidekick, Gussie is the jewel you are looking for.

If you’re looking for a bright, loving, loyal sidekick who will follow you anywhere, Gussie is your guy.

The adoption fee for TX/Gussie, who lives in Plano, TX  is $400,  which helps to offset our vetting and allows NBRAN to rescue more of these wonderful family members.  If you are interested in making TX/Gussie part of your family, please complete the online application by visiting www.nbran.org .  Please let your state coordinator know so we can get the ball rolling.  Also, please email the state coordinator of TX/Gussie-Melinde Waddle @ macgammy@gmail.com  Once approved by your state coordinator, I will setup talking to the foster of Gussie.

Transportation can be arranged up  to 1400 miles with the adopter being responsible for at least the last 100 miles.

Our Britts are housed in foster homes. We are NOT a shelter.

Foster homes are our lifeline to saving dogs. We have opportunities for fostering in every state and Canadian Province. Fostering not only helps the dogs, but blesses the humans involved too. Knowing that you are helping a Brittany find a forever loving home is a great feeling! If you can foster please complete a volunteer application under the Help the Dogs button on our website.
