Story
Thor was taken in at 6 months old in 2019. He was an only child for a few years and thrived with tons of exercise and attention. He loves to go on walks, swim in ponds, and stretch out in the bed and watch movies. Thunderstorms and fireworks do spark fear in him so it's best to have him in a calming environment in those instances. He is very happy to play with other dogs and loves playing with my younger sibling. When left home alone Thor needs to be kenneled or left outside in a FENCED in yard. He is an escape artist and VERY smart so it's best to have him somewhere safe he can hang out till you return home. He needs someone who has the time and patience to work with him on his confidence and anxieties. He is potty trained and kennel trained. Recently we have had a child, and it has caused his anxiety to go through the roof. It is not fair to him to be kenneled all the time and needs space and exercise with the right family!

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.  November 4, 2024, 9:17 pm

Story
Double the Fun: Meet Jack & Sissy! Howdy, friends! I’m Jack Mac, a 49 lb orange and white Brittany boy, and I never go anywhere without my sister and best buddy, Sissy. We’re a bonded pair, which means you get double the love, double the fun, and double the cuddles! Why We’re Your Perfect Pair: I’m the Toy King: I love carrying my toys everywhere—it’s my thing! Fetch? Yes, please. Tug? You got it. Sissy might try to steal my toys, but I let her because I’m a gentleman. Cuddle Masters: Sissy and I are expert snugglers. If you’re sitting down, expect both of us to climb into your lap for all the love—and maybe a nap or two. Critter Patrol Experts: With a fenced yard, we’ll chase all the squirrels, birds, and leaves to keep your yard safe from boredom. Good with Everyone: Cats? Cool. Kids? Love them. Dogs? Bring it on. We’re a social pair who love making friends. Fun Facts About Me (Jack): I’m housebroken and crate trained (as long as I can see my sister—it’s a package deal!). I’m working on my leash manners, but hey, who doesn’t like a challenge? I know commands like sit, stay, come, and even “easy” (whatever that means, I’m just naturally cool). If you’re looking for a pair of loving, playful, and goofy pups, Jack & Sissy are ready to fill your home with laughter, love, and a whole lot of tail wags! &#226&#157&#164&#239&#184&#143 The adoption fee for TX/Jack Mac, who lives in Sanger, TX  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 TX/Jack  part of your family, please complete the online application by visiting www.nbran.org .  Contact the South Central Region Coordinators Melinde Waddle at macgammy@gmail.com  and/or Chris Wagoner at cwnbran@gmail.com and/or Nancy Walker at nwalker@capecod.net  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 Jack.  Transportation can be arranged up 1400 miles with the adopter being responsible for at least the last 100 miles.  January 23, 2025, 3:55 pm

Story
Pink noseHI! My name is Anna. Not from FROZEN, even though it sure looks and feels like it outside. I am a sweet southern lady who is looking for her furever home. I am only 9 months young. Me and my sister found ourselves without our hoodad and NBRAN was nice to take us both in since we are part Brittany from our mom, and our furdad was a lab.  I have the best foster mom who has been working with me since I’m still a puppy. She has crate and potty trained me. She is teaching me to walk on a leash. When we go for a walk, I like to talk to people, dogs and cats and tell them hi! I will need a physical fence of at least 4 feet.  I have been spayed and UTD on all my shots and HW preventative. I love to cuddle and snuggle on the couch. I will also give you plenty of smooches! My favorite activities are running, chasing balls, and watching the birds and squirrels.  I have played with a variety of dogs and get along with them.  Me and sister Elsa are not bonded, and we would prefer to have our own family! If you think I would be a good fit for each other, please contact www.nbran.org to submit an application. My adoption fee is 350.00 I am currently located in Georgia however, if you would love to make me a part of your family, NBRAN will transport up to 1400 miles. If any questions please contact neca227@gmail.com or amypgay@gmail.com or karliebreana@gmail.comJanuary 12, 2025, 12:39 am
