Description
Dog Breed: Brittany (medium coat). Ripley is an adorable 4.5-year-old Brittany who is very sweet and loves, loves people. Ripley is moderately energetic, loves to play fetch, run zoomies and go on long walks. Once he’s had his exercise, Ripley is happy to lie next to you on the couch to watch a game or movie. He is very smart and extremely food motivated so training is made easier. Ripley will need a home with a good-sized yard that is enclosed by a 6-foot physical fence so he can run zoomies and watch birds and squirrels. Ripley will need an owner who is active, patient and dog savvy who can give him lots of attention and understands the exercise needs of a brit. Ripley is currently in an obedience class and knows stay, come, and walks nicely on a leash. The ideal adopter/s would have the time and desire to work with Ripley on continuing his obedience and social skills through positive reinforcement and consistent training. Ripley would do best in a home as an only dog. While he is fine with other dogs if there is a good introduction first, he thrives on having all the attention. Ripley is very self-sufficient and can be left alone in his home comfortably, but he would love to have someone who works from home or is home most of the time. The adoption fee for Ripley is $400. Ripley is neutered, current on his vaccinations and microchipped. If you are interested in making Ripley 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, call Patti at 801.841.4053. 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. Ripley 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.
