Story
Yep, Gloria is giving all you people the stink eye. Why? She thinks nobody wants her because she happens to be 18 years old. But Gloria figures if senior citizens aren't too old to run for President, then they're not too old to be adopted. Sure, the vision and hearing aren't quite what they used to be, but she sees well enough to find a sunny spot in which to bask and to do a happy dance when you bring out the leash, meaning it's time for a walk. Plus, your fingers will love getting lost in her silky soft fur, and your lap will appreciate that she maintains a fit weight of 11lbs. by eating her prescription kidney diet food. She also takes arthritis medication daily to help guarantee that she'll continue enjoying those walks and the occasional car ride to nowhere in particular that she loves so much. Together both prescriptions cost about $50/month, and when you see how much she enjoy's life's small pleasures, you'll know it's worth every penny.   Gloria is reliably house-trained as long as you can take her out when she needs to go, a need which may occur in the middle of the night. Let's get rid of Gloria's stink-eye, and get this gal adopted. See more photos of Gloria at  https://imageevent.com/newrattitude/goldiegloria .   NOTE: Adopters should live close enough to Denham Springs, Louisiana, to make multiple visits in order to ease the transition to a new home.Our adoption fee is $200 for adult dogs or $250 for puppies under 6 months old. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info. April 25, 2024, 1:00 pm

Story
Penny is a 19 month old Brittany/Hound mix. She is UTD on vaccines, microchipped, Heartworm negative and on preventative.  She minds her foster mom really well and has great recall. Penny knows the command sit and is working on stay. She is not very vocal and does not bark much. She loves running in the yard and is good with other dogs. Penny loves her toys and she also loves treats. Penny is a very healthy girl. Penny's foster mom says she is not destructive and loves to lounge in her dog bed. Because she gets overly excited, Penny jumps on people, but her foster mom is working with her.  Because of her jumping, Penny will not be a good fit for a home with small children.  Penny is being fostered in Tennessee. Her adoption fee is $325.00 and can be transported up to 1400 miles via our Canine Railroad with the adopter taking the last leg, usually less than 100 miles.  Applications for Penny can be found on www.nbran.org.  For more information, email dltuthill@epbfi.com or ztasuzanne@gmail.com.  April 28, 2024, 12:10 pm

Story
Introducing Sadie!  Sadie is a cuddle bug that is 9 years old.  She's a beautiful liver and white female brittany, weighing about 37 pounds. Sadie loves the freedom to run without a leash and run the fence perimeter.  She would love to chase rabbits and squirrels.  She walks fairly well on a lead or harness, but is still a big puller.   A physical fenced yard is a must for her, as she needs space to run.   She is very loyal and watches over her person.  She loves chew toys.  She is ok with other dogs as long as they don’t rush to her face.  Sadie would do best as an only dog Sadie is housebroken and low maintenance. She prefers to stay home, with a comfy dog bed. She likes to be petted and have space to run off her energy.  Sadie is heartworm negative, spayed and microchipped.  She doesn't mind getting bathed or towel dried. If  you are looking for a great family pet that likes to travel in the car, golf cart  or patrol the perimeter of the fenced yard / property she is your girl.  She will keep the bunnies and squirrels from eating your flowers and shrubs on your fenced property.  She will need a four-to-five-foot fence.  Sadie loves being outside with her people but enjoys the comfort of dog beds and bed pillows to grab a nap in between bird watching out the window and running outside. Please consider opening your heart and home to Sadie!  Sadie's adoption fee is $350.  Please complete an adoption application at www.nbran.org and specify her name.  She is currently located in northwestern Georgia  and is available to be transported up to 1400 miles, with the adopter driving the last 100 miles approximately.   If you are interested in giving Sadie her forever home, please reach out to LeslieTrenta@leslie@leslietrentadesigns.com     April 28, 2024, 12:10 pm

Story
**Courtesy Post** Say hi to Goose! Here is a little 3 year old fun loving guy. He is ready for any type of activity. His new owner needs to be an energetic person who will keep him exercised, stimulated, educated, happy, interested, and loved. He longs for someone who understands him and his terrier personality. Goose likes kids but he is a little much for them. Goose requires a home with no cats, no little critters such as hamsters, bunnies, parakeets. Also, if you know Jacks, you know that they like to bark! Goose has a lot to say! He wants to make sure you are informed and protected! He’s neutered and very healthy. Goose needs a home with a securely fenced yard. No short chainlink. No electronic fencing. A home visit will be done before adoption. Hopefully his new owner will be home at least part of the time. He needs attention and training. If you are interested in “The Goose” please contact his owner at vic.hamilton01@gmail.com and they will email you an adoption application. There is a small rehoming fee.
