The Brittany Foundation Finding Their Forever Home – February 2022

A non-profit humane organization dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of homeless dogs, has several dogs for adoption.

ROXIE

This little cutie has had a pretty rough go the last few years. She was rescued by a family last year after she ended up in a county shelter as a stray. Their schedules changed and they decided they no longer had time for her and were going to take her back to the shelter. They reached out to us just before they were going to take her and luckily we were able to bring her here. While in their care she developed a tumor on her abdomen that was left untreated and grew quite large. As soon as she arrived here we got her right in for surgery to remove the tumor. She is now feeling great, just had her teeth cleaned, and is ready to find a home of her very own. Roxie is an 8-year-old Dachshund who just wants to be close to a person — as all Doxies do!

ZOEY

She has been with us for 2 years and we are at a loss to understand why? She is stunning, athletic, and loves every person she meets. We know placing a dog as an only dog makes adoptions more difficult but we just know the perfect home is out there for her. We know she needs a very active home and life. She has loads of energy and potential. We are certain there are no limits to what she can learn; she’s that smart. We do know she needs space to run and walls to keep her safe. She can easily scale a 6 foot wall. She just breaks our hearts because she is just 3 years old and has now lived 90% of her young life in a shelter or rescue. She deserves so much more.

MERLIN
Oh, look at that face! We scooped this absolutely precious 10-year-old Pomeranian from another rescue when they were closing and needed to find a safe place for him since he is a special needs pup. He takes daily medication for his heart but it really does not seem to slow him down one bit. He is still quite puppy-like and his best friend here is one of our other special needs pups, Bobby, who is just a year old. We do think Merlin would love to be an only pup but we would be happy to test him with other dogs. You know those Pomeranians!! They love to be the center of attention.

FALCON

This handsome fella was adopted at just a few weeks old, on a whim, by a well-meaning family as they were walking through a store and saw an adoption event happening. They already had 3 dogs at home and a fourth proved to be just too much for them. So poor Falcon was spending the majority of his day in a crate. His family knew this was no life for him and reached out to us for help. For the first few weeks here Falcon was, understandably, depressed and confused; but that has all changed. He is now eager to go for walks with whoever will take him, loves to play, and cuddles with our volunteers and staff. He is great in the car, doing well learning leash manners, and is ready for his forever home. We think he is a cattle dog with a little shepherd mixed in, but we can never really be certain. He is just two years old and is so very ready to find his forever home.
