Story

Sweet Abby is sugar, spice, and everything nice. A perfect recipe of pure preciousness, she is a 5 year (DOB 3/30/2021-exact) orange and white female spayed purebred Brittany. Abby is up to date on all vaccines and a bonafide lovebug. Even though Abby needs a little weight loss, 65 lbs. is not her ideal weight, she is still remarkably close to perfection. Other than some excess weight, Abby is healthy. Abby is calm, eager to please, and extremely affectionate. She had been with her owners since she was a puppy, but unfortunately, one of the owners was having health issues and it was discovered she was allergic to dogs. Abby is housetrained, crate trained and has great house manners. She is very laid back and friendly to adults, as well as children. Abby loves to take rides in the car and will be your best friend. She is not extremely active and has a submissive personality. She is good with both dogs and cats. Because Abby is extremely food motivated, she will need help on her weight loss journey. According to Abby’s foster dad, she is a perfect candidate for an invisible fence. She pulls a little when walking on a leash, but nothing extreme. She enjoys walks with her foster dad and foster fur sibling multiple times a week. As a matter of fact, she has lost some weight over the brief time she has been at her foster home. With food portion management and regular exercise, Abby will be at an ideal weight in no time. Are you looking for a wonderful adult Brittany to join your family? Abby is your gal! Abby’s adoption fee is $350, and she is being fostered in middle north Tennessee. Just a reminder that NBRAN will transport adopted dogs to their approved homes up to 1400 miles, with the adopter being responsible for the last approximately 100 miles. If you are interested in adopting Abby, please contact Suzanne Horsley ztasuzanne@gmail.com OR Debbie Tuthill agilitybrits@gmail.comJuly 21, 2026, 4:42 pm

Story

Meet Our Sweet Rescue Pup ❤️ We're looking for a loving forever home for this wonderful boy. We found him abandoned on the side of the road, severely underweight, starving, and suffering from worms. Since then, we've gotten him the veterinary care he needed, including vaccinations, and he's now healthy, happy, and ready for his next chapter. He is a very energetic and playful dog who loves toys and enjoys playing with other dogs. Despite his rough start, he has excellent manners. He is fully crate trained and potty trained—even when he was sick after we rescued him, he never had an accident in the house. He's affectionate, eager to please, and would make a great companion for an active individual or family who can give him the love, attention, and exercise he deserves. We wish we could keep him, but unfortunately we're unable to provide him with a permanent home. Our biggest hope is to find someone who will love him as much as he deserves and give him the forever home he's been waiting
