Story
Bane is 4 years old. Has been getting more aggressive toward our children so absolutely no children should be near him. He is fine with adults. Does not like smaller dogs or puppies. He did get along very well with our cat for years before she passed. He needs to go with someone that is familiar with Corso behavior. He does get stinky and does not mind to be sprayed down with the hose but does not like his feet or legs touched.

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.  July 26, 2024, 4:25 pm

Story
Meet Victor being fostered in Michigan, a super sweet 7 month old l/w male who needs a foster to adopt or adopter. He does have hip dysplasia & will need surgery when he gets older. He gets along just great, easily jumps up in the bed. He loves to be in your lap & gives lots of kisses. He’d be great for someone looking for a service or emotional support dog. Gets along great with other dogs, he's not been introduced to cats. If you are looking for a young dog that you can help make a difference in their life, he may be the boy for you. He does need a physical fenced in yard, another playful companion would be wonderful. He gets along great with children and all adults. Victor is mostly housetrained, he does sometimes have an accident in the house. He does crate although it's not his favorite place to be. He loves to go for walks and in the backyard he hunts butterfly's and in the evening lightening bugs. If you are interested in Victor please fill out an adoption application at https://www.nbran.org/adopt/adoption-application  Your state coordinator will contact you to help you understand our process. Please contact Georgene Norris @ georgenenbran@yahoo.com for more information about Victor. He's a terrific boy and has lots of love and kisses to give! Nbran will transport up to 1400 miles for the perfect home for Victor. July 26, 2024, 4:25 pm

Story
IS YOUR HOME SADIE'S PERFECT FUREVER HOME? Sadie is a beautiful 5 year old purebred 40 lb. liver/white female Brittany. She is spayed, heartworm negative, up to date on vaccines and on heartworm and flea and tick preventatives. This sweet girl is also housetrained and crate trained. Sadie is highly active and loves to explore outside. Her foster mom has never witnessed her digging or trying to escape and Sadie has excellent recall. Sadie would love to have a big yard where she could run and explore. With proper training and supervision, Sadie's foster mom thinks Sadie would be a candidate for an invisible fence. In true Brittany fashion, Sadie is both intelligent and eager to please. Sadie does pull when walked on a leash and even though her foster mom and dad are working with her, she will need continued and consistent training. Although Sadie will tolerate other dogs, she is not extremely fond of their company. Sadie would love a home where she has no fursiblings. She has lived in a home where she was the only dog and that is what she is accustomed to. If you are looking for a beautiful smart middle-aged Brittany lady and you want an only dog, then Sadie could definitely be your gal! Her adoption fee is only $350 (to help cover vetting and to allow NBRAN to help rescue other furbabies like Sadie). Don't forget that NBRAN will transport adopted dogs up to 1400 miles, with the adopter only being responsible for the last approximate 100 miles. To learn more about Sadie, contact Suzanne Horsley ztasuzanne@gmail.com or Deb Tuthill agilitybrits@epbfi.com                                                                                    July 26, 2024, 4:25 pm

Story
Meet Cody.  He is a sweet, 8-month-old, Orange and White male being fostered in Michigan that is looking for his forever home.  He is smart and a little shy when meeting new people and in new situations.  However, he quickly warms up and, once he does, he wants to be in on all the pets and love you are willing to give. He is pretty chill for such a young dog but he loves to play with his foster fur sisters and brother and likes to stalk things that move in the yard. He loves to chew on appropriate chew bones and also on any stick he can find in the yard.   He is super adept at playing tag with his fur sis and practices stalking with her on anything that moves.  That said, he ignores the cats in the home or shows only mild curiosity. If he does show any curiosity, if they hiss, he walks away without an issue. He is crate trained and goes in it when the foster leaves the home without any problem.  He often chooses to hang in his crate (with the door open) when he is chilling or ready for a nap, He is not usually crated at night but will sometimes choose to sleep there anyway.  He is fully potty trained, super sweet and is loving all the attention he gets with foster Mom and Dad.  He is great with all adults, and older kids but because he is an energetic, leggy boy that doesn’t know he is a full-grown size, he may not be a great fit for smaller children. He does well in the car but he is very hesitant about jumping in or out so assistance is still needed with that. He does need a fenced yard and another playful companion would be wonderful. A fully enclosed fence is required for adoption of Cody.  f you are interested in Cody please fill out an adoption application at https://www.nbran.org/adopt/adoption-application  Your state coordinator will contact you to help you understand our process. Please contact Georgene Norris @ georgenenbran@yahoo.com for more information about Cody. He's a terrific boy and has lots of love and kisses to give! Nbran will transport up to 1400 miles for the perfect home for Cody.  July 26, 2024, 4:25 pm
