My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

7/22/2024



Bertha is an owner surrender looking for a new home.



Hi! My name is Bertha! I am a beautiful 5.5 year old flashy brindle girl that is an owner surrender due to family dynamics that lead my family to feel that I would be better suited with another family. I also have a brother, Rocky XI, and we are a bonded pair that is looking for our forever home! I am described as active, protective, and affectionate! I haven’t had much exposure to other dogs but get along well with my mom and brother that are in my current home. I currently reside with a 2 year old human kid but haven’t had much exposure to other children outside of the home so I may be best in a home with no children. I have never lived with a cat so it is uncertain if I am feline friendly. It takes me a little time to get used to someone but once I am, everything is fine! I am house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep in the crate or on my dog bed with my brother. When the humans must be away, I react fine. When outside I do not jump fences/gates but I do get curious what is under the grass and will dig to find out. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, hard Kong toys, playing fetch, and going for a run! I do not like vegetables so my family tricks me and feeds me farmer’s dog food and instinct freeze dried raw kibble to make sure I have a healthy diet. My current owner says I am “the biggest, most goofy puppy”. If you think my brother and I would make a good addition to your family, contact the rescue today because we are waiting to meet you!
