CO/RIVER - BRITTANY (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Brittany (medium coat). If you’re looking for a loyal, fun, and affectionate companion who will melt your heart, River may be your perfect match! This handsome liver-and-white boy is full of love, charm, and personality. River is a big-boned, sturdy boy weighing 66 pounds—all muscle and heart! Don’t let the number fool you—he’s solid, not overweight. River’s biggest dream? A yard of his own! After living in an apartment, he’s ready to stretch his legs, chase bugs, and explore to his heart’s content. His new home will need a secure 6-foot fence to keep this curious explorer safe. Although River hasn’t lived with children full-time, he’s been gentle and affectionate when around them. His world revolves around people—he’s never met a stranger and loves being wherever his people are. River LOVES other dogs and absolutely must have a friendly, playful canine companion in his new home. He’s also lived peacefully with a cat—his feline roommate was one of his best buddies! This smart boy already knows “sit,” “down,” “leave it,” and he’s eager to please. His leash manners are good, but his handler should be comfortable managing this big boy. Personality Snapshot.... Friendly, sensitive, and loving Dog- and cat-friendly Cuddly and affectionate Loves water and swimming (new home needs baby pool) Excellent house manners; not a fan of the crate! River’s previous owner loved him deeply but had to make the difficult decision to surrender him to NBRAN due to frequent travel and apartment living. River’s ideal family will be home more often than not, with a yard to play in, a dog buddy to share adventures, and people who will shower him with the same love and devotion he gives so freely. The adoption fee for River, who lives in Parker, CO is $400, which helps offset our vetting and allows NBRAN to rescue more of these wonderful family members. If you are interested in making River a part of your family, please complete the on-line application by visiting .nbran . Your state coordinator/volunteer will conduct a phone interview, home visit and vet check as part of the approval process. Once all 3 have been approved, we will begin the matching process. Transportation can be arranged up to 1400 miles with the adopter being responsible for at least the last 100 miles.
