Story
Meet Harley. She is approximately 3-4 years old. Unfortunately We are looking to rehome her ASAP as my financial situation has changed and I am not able to have pets where we live. She is the best dog/kid ever. Full of life, extremely affectionate, I believe she thinks she is a small dog or a human, Im not sure which one. She loves to give hugs with both paws on your shoulders and will hop a little letting you know that she wants to be held. She is full of life and loves to play fetch with her ball or rope toys. Did I mention that she is SUPER GOOFY? She is scared of bad weather and fireworks but we manage through it. She is house trained and kennel trained. If she has to potty, she will go stand at the back door letting you know it’s time. This is extremely difficult for me and my children so she absolutely needs to go to a good home that can give her the attention she deserves.

Story
Penny is a 19 month old Brittany/Hound mix. She is UTD on vaccines, microchipped, Heartworm negative and on preventative.  She minds her foster mom really well and has great recall. Penny knows the command sit and is working on stay. She is not very vocal and does not bark much. She loves running in the yard and is good with other dogs. Penny loves her toys and she also loves treats. Penny is a very healthy girl. Penny's foster mom says she is not destructive and loves to lounge in her dog bed. Because she gets overly excited, Penny jumps on people, but her foster mom is working with her.  Because of her jumping, Penny will not be a good fit for a home with small children.  Penny is being fostered in Tennessee. Her adoption fee is $325.00 and can be transported up to 1400 miles via our Canine Railroad with the adopter taking the last leg, usually less than 100 miles.  Applications for Penny can be found on www.nbran.org.  For more information, email dltuthill@epbfi.com or ztasuzanne@gmail.com.  November 4, 2024, 9:17 pm

Story
Meet Ford: The Toy-Loving, Critter-Chasing Goofball Looking for Love! Hey there! My brother found his forever home, and now it’s my turn! I’m Ford, a 1 ½-year-old, 49 lb orange and white neutered male Brittany, and I’m still on the hunt for an amazing home filled with love, snuggles, and, most importantly, TOYS! Why I’m the Perfect Goofball for You: Toy Enthusiast: Did I mention I LOVE toys? Squeaky ones, bouncy ones, chewy ones—you name it, I want it! You can’t spoil me too much when it comes to toys! Best Friend Material: I’m all about being your loyal buddy. Whether it’s playing with my toys, chewing on bones, or just being by your side, I’m here for it all. Yard Patrol Expert: I need a physical fenced-in yard so I can run, play, and chase away any critters that think they own the place. They need to know who's boss (hint: it’s me). My Dream Home: A Family Who Loves Fun: I’m looking for a family that loves to play and doesn’t mind a little silliness. Lots of Snuggles: I’m a sweetheart who loves to snuggle up and be close to my humans. A Yard for Adventures: I need a safe place to run and play to my heart’s content. If you’re looking for a fun-loving, toy-obsessed pup who will keep you laughing and loving life, I’m your guy! Let’s make every day an adventure filled with fun and friendship. I’m Ford, and I can’t wait to meet you! The adoption fee for TX/Ford, who lives in Marble Falls, TX  is $400,  which helps to offset our vetting and allows NBRAN to rescue more of these wonderful family members.  If you are interested in making TX/Ford  part of your family, please complete the on-line application by visiting www.nbran.org .  Contact the South Central Region Coordinators Chris Wagoner at cwnbran@gmail.com  , Melinde Waddle at macgammy@gmail.com and/or Nancy Walker at nwalker@capecod.net  and then let your state coordinator know so we can get the ball rolling.  A phone interview, home visit and vet check will be required as part of the approval process by your state coordinator, before talking to the foster of Ford. Transportation can be arranged up to 1400 miles with the adopter being responsible for at least the last 100 miles.November 11, 2024, 7:20 am
