Story
Hi. My name is Pete. I'm a 4-year-old, orange and white Brittany who was born with cataracts in both eyes: then I went blind.    When I was blind, I engaged in compulsive repetitive  behaviors, such as spinning, barking, and pica (eating non-food items). I had successful eye surgery and now I can see again.  As a result of me regaining my vision, I acquired a new compulsive behavior; eyeing light and shadows. Fortunately, with the help of my medication, my compulsive behaviors, with the exception of pica,  have improved a greatly.    My favorite toy is a black Kong. My foster mom thought it would be good for me because I can't bite through it. I love to fetch and retrieve and could do it all day long. B eing able to see is such a blessing.  If I have trouble finding my Kong, I'm good at a game called Hot and Cold. I respond well to the command  "leave it!" when I find something I want to put in my mouth. I listen well to the command "drop!" when I put an object in my mouth. I weigh 35 lb and I like to stay active. Maybe my foster mom could teach me how to wiggle my tush to  "Nothing But a Hound Dog."   I am not picky about what I eat and will try to swallow anything I put in my mouth. Because I like to swallow everything, I should not be left unsupervised.  When I get anxious, a soothing white noise helps me to stay calm.    I do not get along with other dogs and probably not cats. I have never been around children. I am not sure if I would get along with them or not.    I am a great  leash walker and have perfect recall. I'm up to date on all my vaccines and, other than requiring my eye drops once a day, I am in good health.    I love to ride in the car and watch the world go by as I look out the window.  I am eager to please and will do anything my foster mom ask of me.   I am a happy dog and when I'm tired I love to sit and cuddle in my foster mom's lap.    I'm very thankful for all the care I have received. It has been done with devotion by the people at nbran. I hope that soon I will be in a permanent home with a loving family.     I will need to take my eye drops for the rest of my life, When my foster mother tells me "Chin,"  I rest my head in her hand so she can put the drops in my eyes. My adoption Fee is $400 to help offset my medical expenses and to allow NBRAN to rescue other Brittanys.    NBRAN will provide transportation, up to 1400 miles, to my new approved home.  For more information about me contact Debbie Tuthill agilitybrits@gmail.com or Suzanne Horsley ztasuzanne@gmail.comApril 9, 2025, 2:23 pm

Story
All of our dogs are housed in private homes, we do not have a store or a shelter.  We do not show dogs to interested parties until they have an approved adoption application.  If you are interested in adopting one of our dogs, please fill out an adoption application on our website www.helpingshepherdsofeverycolor.com/adoption-application  You may also find us on facebook:  Helping Shepherds of Every Color Rescue  Update 12/23  Nani has blossomed in foster care and she has turned into a friendly, happy girl.  It's amazing what a little love and TLC will do.  She will need some formal training but that will help her bond with her new family.  Nani is very silly and tries very hard to play with the little dog in her foster home. Nani is a very sweet girl. She is very nervous and timid right now.  Nani would do best with a calm, confident dog companion.  She is just under a year old.  She is very sweet, just very scared.  Nani may not be a good farm dog, she was turned into a shelter because she killed some chickens.  In her defense she was very underweight and very hungry. You will need a very good vacuum cleaner, she sheds like crazy.  May 4, 2025, 4:08 pm

Rubin is a young adult male. If you are a hermit who lives at the lake, Rubin might be the dog for you.  He loves to play in the water and he is very sweet but he is very anxious around new people and changes in his routine or environment.  He does not do well in a car.   He is very sweet and smart.  Rubin will need continued exposure to new things and socialization to keep him outgoing and not anxious or scared.  He does well with other dogs, he likes to play with them but sometimes he will test his canine friends.  He is probably not good with cats. Update 2/1/24.  Rubin is doing better around new people.  He has also been out in the yard with small dogs as well as the big dogs.  He gets excited with the little ones but they put him in his place and he leaves them alone.  He generally doesn't get into anything when loose in the house unless it's yummy left overs, then he might be tempted.  He is doing better about getting in the car.  Once he will get in the car, we will work on road trips.  It's a slow process but it is rewarding to see him work through some of his anxiety. He truly is a people dog.  He will also let you know if one of the other dogs needs to go out.  If they bark, he will bark louder to let you know.  Rubin is a comical dog, if you don't have a sense of humor and patience, he is not the dog for you.   Rubin is working hard to overcome his nerves.    October 27, 2024, 12:57 pm

If Panda had a theme song it would be 'Party All The Time' by Eddie Murphy.  He is fun loving and playful. He met a mean kitty and she scratched him.  All he wanted to do was say hello.  Panda would probably be fine with kids, he just needs to be taught not to jump on them.  September 18, 2025, 12:56 am

Story
Hi there! Lil Richard here! I am a cute little terrier mix that is super-duper happy to be sitting at the shelter! I was picked up by one of the kind Humane Deputies! He was called to pick me up as I roamed around a neighborhood. I was never claimed by my family and I am now available for adoption. I have all of my vaccinations, I have a microchip, and I have been neutered. One little problem did show up on my health check up. It seems that I am heartworm positive. I am not worried! The shelter already has my first treatment set up and I can’t wait to get started!

Story
Oh, hello. My name is Laika! This gorgeous girl is in need of a new home. I had a home that I loved, but my owner was moving and I couldn’t go with her. She was sad to have to leave me, but she is hoping the shelter can find the perfect “fam” for me. I am about two years old. I have all of my vaccinations, I am heartworm negative, I have a microchip, and I have been spayed. My owner gave me great reviews! She said that I was great with other dogs, in fact I lived with another dog. I was fine with both kids and adults. I am an active girl that needs lots of activity and exercise. Do you have a lifestyle that is busy and fun? Well I might be a good fit for you and your “fam!” Fill out that adoption application and send it in online. If approved, you can come meet me!
