Story
Ruger is the sweetest cuddle bug and the most energetic, sassy dog you will ever meet. He loves people and all the attention! I believe he would do best in a home where he is the only dog so he gets lots of attention but he does well with other dogs as far as we can tell. I believe he would do well with kids to play with or even a family that has a lot of parties or get together with friends because he is all about the attention. He loves to spend lots of time outside chasing bugs and birds. We will send him with all of his stuff (favorite toys, dog bed, outdoor cot, etc.) The only thing to mention is he is terrified of fireworks, but I have an anxiety medicine for him from the vet that I will send with him. Other than that, he is all love and lots of energy!

Story
Henry is a very playful 5-6 year old male mix breed. He’s house trained & kenneled trained. Loves his kennel! He’s leash trained & loves to go outside for walks. He loves car rides, treats, loves to play with toys, (preferably slippers), he plays fetch, he knows basic commands. High five, shake, dance, bark & roll over. He is the best dog but unfortunately does not do well in a house with small children. Since we have adopted him 5 years ago, I have an 18 month old and 4 week old twins. He isn’t adjusting well and has been aggressive with my 18 month old on multiple occasions. I want the best place for him in a stress free environment where he can run & play and not have any restrictions due to small children. I am charging a $100 adoption fee to cover his up to date vaccines.

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. July 14, 2024, 10:30 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.  July 14, 2024, 10:08 pm
