;s daddy passed away in July. It took some time to re-adjust to foster life, but let me tell you, this boy is so much fun to be around now! His positive attitude spreads and always puts a smile on your face. Peter loves to run around outside and play with a ball. He loves to explore in the yard and sunbathe on the patio. When he is inside, he sometimes gets the zoomies, but eventually lies down to rest. At 12 years old, and healthy, you would never know he is a senior. He loves to go on walks and he is working on not pulling. He is great company to have around. Peter used to be over weight and has been on weight management food, which will extend his life and allow him to be more active. Peter is currently 55 pounds, so he will need to drop another 5-7 to hit his fitness goal. This active senior will require a yard with a secure fence. He has lots of energy and is devoted to ridding your back yard of squirrels and rabbits. Peter loves to play fetch and is looking for a forever home that will play Chuck It. Peter has a sensitive side as well. He loves to snuggle and is very eager to please. He is a good listener in the house and just wants to be loved. He is gentle with children (10 & older), likes other dogs and we believe is accepting of dog-savvy cats. Peter is healthy (passed a senior blood panel), a little hard of hearing, UTD on all vaccinations, heart worm negative, (on preventative), neutered, and micro chipped. His adoption fee will be $200 to offset his vetting and to allow NBRAN to rescue more of these wonderful family members. If you are interested in making Peter a part of your family, please complete the on-line application by visiting www.NBRAN.org. Peter The Great is eligible for our wonderful Senior-to-Senior program. If you are a senior, age 60 or over, his adoption fee is $100. Once the application has been completed, you will be contacted by your state coordinator. A phone interview, home visit, and vet check will be required as part of the approval process.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
