Description
Dog Breed: Brittany (short coat). Hello Brittany lovers… Charlie here and I'm looking for my furever home! I am an energetic, very sweet 4-year-old who loves running outside as well as snuggling on the couch with my family. At 50 pounds (down from 61lbs), I'm a big , strong love of a dog! For the first 3 ½ years of my life I was the constant companion to a single owner. When my dad unexpectedly died, I found myself in the shelter in Northern Utah. Luckily for me - the shelter reached out to NBRAN, and I landed in a loving foster home. I have easily settled in with my foster family, getting along very well with the 4 resident springers and adjusting to a more structured lifestyle. I'm very friendly, and love my school-aged, well-mannered foster grandkids as well as all visitors. I have no issues with resource guarding my food or toys, and I know how to use a dog door. I really don't like being in a kennel at all, but I can be left alone in the house for several hours without causing any damage (although I would prefer to go with you!). At night I sleep on a dog bed in my foster parents’ bedroom with one of my foster brothers beside me, but I would love to sleep on the bed with you. I was cat tested at the shelter and did well. Although I have had no formal training, my foster Mom says that I am an exceptionally quick learner. True to my breed, I love to run and have a high prey drive. Also true to my breed, I love being with my people and am very friendly and loving. I walk well on leash - unless I see and bird - then I pull hard! I do well playing with my foster siblings in a fenced area. I will need a home with a good-sized yard that is securely fenced (6 feet height) because if left to my own devices, I will attempt to go on escapades by myself. Car rides are the best thing since sliced bread - and I love going uptown with my foster Dad! Speaking of sliced bread - don't leave any on the counter! Although I get along well with the resident dogs, I would also do well as an only dog. I love, love, love attention! The adoption fee for Charlie is $400. Charlie is neutered, current on his vaccinations and microchipped. If you are interested in making Charlie a member of your family, and have the time, energy, and love to give him, please visit .nbran and complete the on-line adoption application form under the Adopt tab. A phone interview, home visit, and vet check will be required as part of the approval process. For more information after completing an application, you may call the Utah State coordinator Patti at 801.641.4053. Please realize that all our dogs are placed in the most appropriate home for their individual needs. We do not operate on a first-come, first-serve basis. Charlie can be adopted up to 1400 miles from his foster home to eligible adopters.

Overview:
The Brittany is a beloved and versatile gun dog, originating from the Brittany province of France in the 17th century. These medium-sized dogs are instantly recognizable by their athletic build, often appearing leggy and agile, with a dense, flat or wavy coat that comes in orange and white, or liver and white. Their intelligent and eager-to-please nature makes them incredibly trainable and responsive. Temperamentally, Brittanys are known for being friendly, energetic, and affectionate, making them excellent companions for active families. While their moderate size might suggest apartment living, their high energy levels and need for regular exercise mean they thrive best in homes with a yard or access to plenty of outdoor space. Generally a healthy breed, they can be predisposed to certain conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia, and sometimes epilepsy, so responsible breeding practices are crucial. With proper training and socialization, a Brittany will undoubtedly enrich the lives of its devoted family.
