Potato

My story

This gorgeous girl is aptly named Potato due to her spud-like physique. Potato is estimated to be around 12 years old and she came to us after her elderly owner was no longer able to take care of her. Potato came to us at a hefty 45 lbs and is now currently 35 lbs! She's looking for a family who will help her maintain her healthy lifestyle.  Potato is used to having someone home most of the day, so she would greatly benefit from an adopter who is retired or works from home. She loves her people greatly and experiences some separation anxiety when she is left alone. Potato is fostered with children and other dogs and does great. She's a chunky girl who loves her food and would benefit from being separated while feeding.

She'll get excited if we pass other dogs and try to go towards them. But she really doesn't move to fast and she's easy to control.Kennel trained: No - she does not like her kennel, and she's not destructive when left out.Rides well in a car: Yep, she's happy to go on car rides.Good with other dogs: Yes - she can be a bit of a bully to small dogs but does well with medium/large dogs Good with cats: Not fostered with cats, but we think she'd do fine.Good with young children (under 10): Yes, she's fostered with kids under 5 - does best with children who will respect her boundaries Shy or confident: Confident. She's not shy with visitors and will approach them for attention.Barks: YesApartment qualified: No due to separation anxiety barking Special needs or health concerns: Potato recently had a dental cleaning and senior bloodwork. Everything looks age-appropriate! She might have some diminished hearing but it doesn't impact her day-to-day. We believe Potato is a small/medium-sized mix and is around 12 years old. She is fostered in a private home in Lincoln. The adoption fee is $200 which helps cover the cost of vetting procedures. Adoptable pets will have received age-appropriate vaccines and dewormings, a microchip, heartworm test (if applicable) and a spay/neuter. If you’re interested in adopting this puppy/dog, please submit an inquiry or email BraveAnimalRescue@gmail.com to ask about our adoption process (please check your spam or junk email if you do not hear back from us within a few business days).
