Story
Greer is four years old and has been my best friend since she was five months. She was a perfect fit for me until my one year old grandson came along.. Greer is not good with children and I believe it is due to her breed. She is a loving and loyal dog with no negative tendencies until now. She has not bitten yet, but I believe she will as she has growled and snapped at the baby, without provocation, more than once. Greer has been well taken care of, has always been up to date on shots and preventive health care. She had a cracked tooth about a year and a half ago and that tooth was pulled. I've always groomed her myself, even trimming nails. She sheds moderately, loves to run in my fenced yard. Although she has lots of energy she was fine for a year and a half when I lived in a one bedroom apartment. I love her with my whole heart and need someone who will love her as I do. She has been on a plane, in the cabin. She sleeps with me at night. She needs and deserves a loving owner.

Story
Hi! My name is Pi and I’m 7 months old. I live with my biological mommy and daddy, but I’d really like to have a home where there aren’t so many dogs so I can get more love and attention. I was so different from my litter mates that my mommy wanted to give me a different type of name. I am smart, and I used to be so mischievous and rambunctious when I was a baby but I’ve calmed down a lot. But I would still like to have a lot of play time. And if you have another animal for me to play with I’ll be so happy! My mommies been trying to find me a home for a long time, but when people see my pictures they aren’t interested. I might not be tiny and fluffy, but I only weigh 29 lbs and I am very cute. I have a very sweet personality, and I’m sort of housebroken, but I need a little help in that area. If you watch me close I’ll be completely trained in no time. Do you have room in your home for me? I would love to snuggle with you in bed and give you lots of kisses ❤️

Story
Look at Tracy's smile! Doesn't she look like a happy, lively girl? She is! She loves to run about inside the fenced yard of her foster home and romp with the other dogs. If you were to give her a call, those pretty ears would perk up and she would find her way across the yard to join you. And what, you might ask, is so special about that? Well, lively Miss Tracy has significant vision loss. But, as she runs inside her fenced yard or plays with her canine foster siblings, you'd never suspect that her vision is impaired. Tracy, an approximately 9-year-old 28-lb. Rat Terrier mix has a genetic condition that will likely cause her to become blind someday. Fortunately it has progressed gradually enough to enable Tracy to fine-tune her other senses so that she can rely on them when she can no longer see. She can follow your voice to find you on the sofa, where she will happily sit with you to be petted and have her ears rubbed. And she can use her nose skillfully to detect the difference between dogs and cats. She knows that she gets along with the former and would love to have a dog buddy or two in her home, but she is most definitely not a fan of the latter. Tracy is house-trained and walks nicely on a leash. She would so love to be adopted right now to have time to acclimate to her new home while she can still see a bit. Besides, if she can truly see your face for just a little while, she'll always have that vision to hold in her heart as her sight dims. Tracy is a wonderful companion, who isn't asking for your pity. She's only asking for a chance. See more photos of Tracy at http://imageevent.com/newrattitude/tracy . Our adoption fee is $175 for adult dogs or $225 for puppies under 6 months old. If you are interested in adopting this dog, PLEASE READ THE DETAILED ADOPTION PROCESS information on our website at www. NewRattitude.org/adopt/  From there, you can access our adoption application or contact our Adoption Team for more info.

Story
Well hello there! I’m Britta and I’m 10.5 years old.  I am ½ of an amazing pair of Brittanys and we are looking for our forever home…. TOGETHER.  My sister Becca and I used to live outside all the time but since we’ve lived in foster care we’ve learned to love to be inside and hang with our people.  We like all people...me especially and I will stick by your side, follow you around the house, sit beside you on the couch and snuggle with you in bed. I like to be taken for walks, but I get excited and pull on the leash.  Walks are exciting…what can I say?  I also like toys…stuffies are the best.  I like to unstuff them.  I have a high prey drive so I shouldn’t live with a cat. My sister Becca and I would love a home where it’s just us and our humans.  More love for us.   We are very active for our age and love to run outside.  Don't be fooled by the white in our face...we are young at heart! I used to have nasty heart worms in me, but NBRAN got me all fixed up and they are gone.  I am spayed, up to date on all my vaccinations and overall very healthy.  So if you are looking for aperfect pair of Brittanys to join your family….we are your girls.  We will only go to our new home together…. together forever!  Our adoption fee, as we are seniors, is $200 US each but if you are a senior too it’s $100 US each.  We are located near London, Ontario, Canada but NBRAN can transport us up to 2200 kms or 1400 miles.  If you are interested, please submit an application and our people will get in touch with you.  http://www.nbran.org/adopt/adoption-application For more information about Britta (and Becca) please contact sandratoal18@gmail.com We will NOT consider splitting up this pair. They have been together their entire lives.

Story
Hi there!  It's me...Becca!  I am ½ of an amazing pair of Brittanys and we are looking for our forever home…. TOGETHER.  My sister Britta and I used to live outside all the time but now we know what it’s like to sleep inside and we like it! I like to sleep in the room with my people but prefer a dog bed on the floor beside you.  I like people, but I like my own space too.  (you can cuddle with my sister though!)  I like to be outside and watch the birds and the critters.  We have a doggie door and a huge fenced yard so I can come and go so a fenced yard for me is a must.  I love to eat.  I was very sick when I had heart worms and was skinny…but I’m better now and I’m making up for lost time.  I love to take your socks and to steal things off the counter when foster mom isn’t looking.  I also pull on a leash when I walk.  Hey…no one is perfect right?  Like my sister Britta I'm pretty zippy for my age so I like walks and running outside to burn some steam. I like my foster family, but I can be nervous around new people that come to the house.  I just bark at them a bit…that’s all.  Foster mom says I'm "discriminating".  I am spayed, up to date on all my vaccinations and overall very healthy.  So if you are looking for a great couple of Brittanys to join your family….we are your girls.  We will only go to our new home together…. together forever!  Our adoption fee, as we are seniors, is $200 US each or if you are a senior too it’s $100 US each.  We are located near London, Ontario, Canada but NBRAN can transport us up to 2200 kms or 1400 miles.  If you are interested, please submit an application and our people will get in touch with you.  http://www.nbran.org/adopt/adoption-application For more information about Becca (and Britta) please contact sandratoal18@gmail.com We will NOT consider splitting up this pair.
