Story
Thank you for your interest in Chili. She is the most amazing girl who did not deserve the start she got in life. You see, Chili was born in a shed and that was where she spent her life until she came to SPIN at the age of 8 mths. Chili lived with her Mom and Dad and 4 siblings and life was fun because there were lots of dogs to play with, but there were no lovely people to get to know. No house to live in. No fancy bed or fun walks. That all changed the day she came into SPIN. She was scared. So timid, hiding behind her sister, Ginger. Curious but oh, so nervous! We started to introduce her to new things: a big yard to play in, other dogs, people with yummy treats, a bath, clippers and scissors. So much to learn and see and smell! Chili's life had changed and she was trying to figure it all out Then she was adopted into a loving family and life was good. Sure, she was still scared of many things but she was warm and loved and could play in her own yard and sleep on soft beds and then tragedy struck and Chili found herself back in our care. Thankfully we had a perfect foster home ready and waiting for her.

Story
I’m looking for potential adopters for my buddy Leo, I’ve been caught up with the discovery of my grandmother’s death three weeks ago and I’ve had a declining relationship of my dog going-on as I’m working (full-time) also, barely getting walks in as he’s often home alone either outside or inside of his cage hours on end; and gotten complaints of his inability of separation and constant whining. I could barely even walk him over the years due to his size, as I don’t have the proper training for him, never did. Leo has helped me to be a friend to come back home to after I got into a crane accident in 2022, and ended up losing my job the same year, his relationship with me has had it ups and downs and even worse I’ve become too ignorant and I feel like it’s coming to an end. I’m looking to rehome Leo and will work with any adopter. He needs a good home, and a giant backyard to play in.

Story
Meet Denver – Your Loyal, Big-Hearted Shadow Denver is a 7-year-old liver and white male Brittany with a gentle soul and an even bigger heart—he’s also a big boy at 64 lbs and working on losing about 15 more pounds to reach his ideal weight. This sweet, affectionate guy is the perfect blend of mellow maturity and loyal companionship. Denver is a true Velcro dog—he always wants to know where his humans and cats are, and he’ll be right by your side wherever you go. At night, he sleeps in bed with his foster mom, content just being close. He gets along beautifully with his foster dog sisters and the resident cats and is a respectful presence around the house. He’s not crate trained, but he doesn’t need to be—Denver is completely trustworthy when left alone. He won’t get into anything or cause trouble while you’re away. Foster mom says Denver needs to learn to be quiet when she leaves the house. He can be very vocal and unhappy when alone, but he eventually settles down. . He definitely lets you know he’s not a fan of being solo! Denver also has a spirited side when it comes to squirrels. If he spots one, watch out! He goes all-in on chasing them and can get a little vocal inside the house until the squirrel is out of sight. He loves car rides and is known to sneak into the front seat whenever he gets the chance—he just wants to be as close as possible to his humans! Despite his vocal moments, Denver has a playful side! He loves to play ball—just don’t expect him to bring it back! He prefers a game of chase and thinks it’s hilarious when you come after him. He also knows exactly where the toy basket is and won’t hesitate to empty it one toy at a time to find his favorite. Regular walks and a fenced yard to stretch his legs will help Denver stay healthy and happy as he works on his weight. After some outdoor fun, he’s more than ready to snuggle up for a good nap. Denver would thrive in a home that offers companionship, gentle structure, and lots of love. He’s already a pro at being a loyal, low-maintenance companion—you just need to meet him to see it. If you think Denver would be a great addition to your family, please reach out to Suzanne Horsley ztasuzanne@gmail.com or Deb Tuthill at agilitybrits@gmail.com NBRAN will transport adopted dogs up to 1400 miles with the adopter being responsible for the last approximately 100 miles.  Fostered in Northern Kentucky Neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped  July 1, 2025, 4:15 pm

Story
Meet MI/Piper & MI/Lucy-Bonded Brittany Sisters Looking for Their Forever Home Sometimes the best things in life come in pairs—and Piper and Lucy are the perfect example. These beautiful, 7-year-old purebred Brittany sisters are full of charm, love, and personality. Fostered together in Michigan, they’re looking for a new forever home—not because of anything they’ve done, but due to circumstances beyond their control. Why You’ll Love Them Piper and Lucy are truly move-in ready. They are: •          House trained •          Crate trained •          Rarely bark •          Have excellent house manners They get along wonderfully with kids, other dogs, and even cats. Their only “flaw”? They get so excited to see people that they sometimes jump up to say hello—which is just part of their sweet, affectionate nature. Whether it’s lounging indoors or quietly keeping an eye on squirrels and chipmunks in the yard, Piper and Lucy are easygoing and content. Most of all, they just want to be near their people. Meet Lucy Lucy is an orange and white Brittany full of joyful energy and sweet affection. She loves to cuddle, play with her stuffies, and run big joyful zoomies in the yard. Treats are her favorite—in fact, she’d probably commit a few minor crimes to get extra ones! Watching squirrels and “chippys” is one of her favorite pastimes, and, like Piper, she adores people and is always nearby. Lucy is outgoing, happy, and well adjusted—truly a joy to be around.   Meet Piper Piper is a liver and white Brittany with a big heart and gentle soul. She loves cuddling, giving kisses, carrying around soft squeaky toys. and being close to her people. Whether she's perched on your lap or scanning the woods for movement, she’s always content—as long as she’s with you.  Outgoing and affectionate, Piper thrives in a peaceful, loving environment. She can be a little nervous during big storms or fireworks but handles it well if she has a safe, cozy spot nearby. Bonus Points – Literally! Both girls have spent time in the show ring and have earned UKC points toward their Grand Champion titles. If continuing that journey interests you, they’re more than happy to strut their stuff again.

Story
Bentley is a 4 ½ year old, male, Brittany who loves prowling the yard for critters and curling up on his foster Mom’s lap.  He loves to play tug and wrestle with his foster family’s dog and chew on bones.  He knows sit, stay, down, shake, but is still working on not jumping on people and licking (kissing) them.  His previous owner sent him to training and is supposed to be a good hunter for pheasants.  With the way he is in his fosters yard, he sure seems like he would be.  He is e-collar trained and has excellent recall.  Bentley loves cuddling with people, especially on the couch and bed.  He is a good rider in the car, pontoon boat and UTV.  He is very well trained and would be an asset to any family.  He has very soft nails which split very easily and will need special care when taking care of his nails.  The foster can go over the details. HI, I’m Bentley. I am very loving and easy going, and would love to be your companion!  My foster Mom calls me her curious George.  I always have to stick my head in any grocery bags to see what might be in there.  If she sits down, I am always on her lap and I can’t avoid giving her many kisses.  In fact, most of the time she needs to tell me that is enough.  My foster parents let me sleep in bed with them.  I love to chase balls, I sometimes don’t like to bring them back, but I will drop them so you can throw it again. I’ll admit... leash walking is not my strength, but hey, nobody’s perfect.  I am a very smart and loving boy. Bentley will need daily exercise with his new family as well as lots of love and attention. Bentley would be most happy in a home that has somebody with him most of the time as he is very attached to his humans and doesn’t like it when he is not with you.  Because he is used to being with his playmate (Maverick who is also up for adoption), he would do best if he were adopted into a home with another dog to play with.  Bentley loves to play with other dogs. He does not get kenneled when the fosters leave and there have been no problems as long as all blankets are put away.  He’s been checked from nose to tail and is up to date on all his vaccines, micro-chipped, neutered, heartworm negative and on preventative meds.  Now all that’s missing is his Furever Home! The adoption fee for MN/Bentley, who is currently being fostered in WI 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 MN/Bentley part of your family, please complete the online application by visiting www.nbran.org .  Contact the Hallie Barbara, the MN and WI State Coordinator at minnesotabrittany@gmail.com and then let your state coordinator know so we can get the ball rolling.  A phone interview, home visit, and vet check will be required as part of the approval process by your state coordinator, before talking to the foster of Bentley.  Transportation can be arranged up  to 1400 miles with the adopter being responsible for at least the last 100 miles.July 7, 2025, 8:08 pm
