IMPORTANT!! Due to time and staffing constraints, ALL inquiries/questions MUST BE accompanied by your completed Adoption Application (Matchmaking Questionnaire). See above for the link to the form. Any inquiries/questions sent without the completed form will NOT receive a response. Thank You for understanding. Affectionate "special needs" Ginger is 4 years old and in search of a loving home that is as special as she is. Ginger had a rough start in life and for the first year of her puppyhood she was strictly confined in a tiny crate with only a few potty breaks. As a result, she suffers from claustrophobia and is terrified of leashes. Despite all this, Ginger is a loving and friendly girl who likes nothing better than to jump up on your lap for a tummy rub, or sit beside you on the couch watching TV. She also loves sleeping in bed with you. She likes toys and chew bones and running around out in the back yard. Ginger is good with other pets and us perfectly potty trained. She uses the doggie door and never makes a mess. Ginger would be the ideal companion for someone who doesn't take their dog for a walk and just wants a friendly and loving pet to be their best friend. Her adoption fee is $125 and includes her spay and all shots.

Good with dogs, Needs special attention, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Millie is an extremely loving and affectionate 30-lb, two-year-old, French Brittany who loves snuggles and playing with her toys. She is very attentive and eager to please; with a bit more training she will be an excellent family dog. She is kennel trained and sleeps through the night. Millie has good manners when left unsupervised in the house. She loves to play and matches the energy of the other dogs around her when wrestling or playing chase. She would do great with other dogs in the home, but would also love to be the apple of your eye having your undivided attention. She has also done well around dog-savvy, older children. Millie runs or hikes daily with her foster dad and will need a home where she can stay equally active. She also needs a home with a spacious yard, secured by a 6 foot fence, where she can run zoomies and go on squirrel patrol.    Millie was born with some slight orthopedic issues – she has a minor left luxating patella and mild hip dysplasia.  She received a thorough work up by an orthopedic surgeon and at this point in time, surgery is not required and may never be.  Millie may have some arthritis and reduced mobility in her senior years due to these conditions and she may not. Overall, Millie is an absolute sweetheart who melts the hearts of everyone she meets. If you’re looking for a young girl who will love you to the moon and back, look no further than this. The adoption fee for Millie is $400.  Millie is spayed, current on her vaccinations and microchipped. If you are interested in making Millie a member of your family, and have the time, energy, and love to give her, please visit www.nbran.org and complete the on-line adoption application form under the Adopt tab.  A phone interview, home visit, and vet check will be required as part of the approval process.  For more information after completing an application, you may call the Utah State coordinator Patti at 801.641.4053 Please realize that all our dogs are placed in the most appropriate home for their individual needs.  We do not operate on a first-come, first-serve basis. Millie can be adopted up to 1400 miles from her foster home to eligible adopters. April 28, 2026, 7:57 am
