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
Hi, my name is Roan. I'm a 5-year-old male Roan Brittany with mixed colors of brown, and white. I am creative, crate trained and house-trained. Despite my age, I am mature beyond my years. While very friendly, I am not very active and would prefer to hang out in the house or on the sofa. Although I'm only five 5 years old, my foster mom calls me an old soul. She seems to have this fantasy that I would enjoy hanging out on the sofa watching reruns of Lawrence Welk. She also seems to have this idea that I would like past TV episodes of Rin Tin Tin.  With my first family, I lived with my sister. She was a bully, and I put up with her behavior for years. When we were surrendered to a foster home, through no fault of our own, I decided that I was not going to put up with her giving me such a hard time. I defended myself and she got the message that she had gone too far. Thankfully, I was separated from my sister. Today I prefer to be alone and would do well as only one dog.  I am easy going and like to stop and smell the flowers. I enjoy meeting new people especially women. They think I'm handsome. Sometimes, I like to picture myself as a gentleman, opening doors for pretty human ladies or presenting them with bouquets of colorful flowers. I do not run around and play on my own. To avoid weight gain I will need to be exercised. Dog parks and daycare are not possible for me. I really don't know how well I would get along with cats. I do well walking on a leash, although I still pull a bit. However, with training and persistence, I will easily overcome this. I don't have any bad habits and I'm not picky about food. I'm up to date on all my vaccines as well as being heartworm- negative and micro-chipped.  My foster mom will tell you that I have a calm and well-mannered disposition, all of which is true. I'm looking forward to living in a home surrounded by love.   Please contact the TN coordinators below for more information on Roan.
