My story

Spayed, vaccinated, chipped and ready to go to her forever home Brita is a strong, muscular build girl with a short, beautiful brindle coat. She is the size of a lab. Low maintenance coat requiring minimal grooming. She is affectionate and playful but very shy with people she doesn't know. She is very intelligent and athletic. Crate trained, house broken and just started basic training. She will require consistent controlled socialization and ongoing training to ensure she develops into well-adjusted adult. Will make great family companions. While she is actually placid in nature when you first meet her, she becomes a wiggle butt once she trusts. . She will need positive, fair training. She does NOT show to have a high prey drive but may get too excited with kittens or small puppies at first but gentle on the excitement of the first meeting is over. Some dogs can be an emotional support dog BUT this girl is the opposite in nature. She needs her own emotional support person to help to know she is loved and help guide her. A calm home with kindness both confidence would be best. She needs to know she is secure. She needs individual attention to help her grow emotionally in new situations. Her emotional support human should be one that is confident, calm and understands basic canine body language. She would do best with a patient person that can offer a secure and structured family environment, She can walk on a leash but not totally comfortable with the idea. A home with a small fenced in yard would be preferred. She prefers to be INSIDE with her human, and loves cuddles. Although she LOVES water, good luck getting her to go outside in the rain. LOL She loves other dogs; big or small. Would be fine as the only dog but can benefit from a mature dog that can help teach her the ways and rules of the home. She has a moderate energy level, and may come on like a wrecking ball when she first meets another dog, so low introductions would be best. She will receive started food, new leash, new collar, transition food, post adoption support and medical records. All adoptions come with a 14 day trial period. If you are looking for a loving, devoted dog that would jump in front of a train for you, this is your girl. Once, she gives her heart to you, she would do anything for you. Very Loyal. Her love doesn't come fast but it will last.
