Male Dog, Brittany
Brittany (Medium Coat)
Description:
Jude is a very cute and handsome 7 year old neutered male Brittany. He was an owner surrender after having been tethered to a tree for an extended period of time and has a permanent scar around his neck to prove it. It took nearly nine months to be able to safely pet him and another four months for him to be adoptable. It’s unknown if he ever lived in a house, but surprisingly he is not destructive and does not soil in his room. After a year of training he has near perfect recall. Leash walking continues to be a challenge. Jude knows the commands Off! (get off) and Down! (lay down) and Wait!. These skills will be very helpful for housebreaking in his new home. He loves to play catch and will catch everything from toys, to treats to medication. Jude would do best in a home with Brittany experienced adopters with no children. He still likes to put his mouth on the hands of a person petting him. Although this is a gentle gesture, it can be frightening to a child. In his past life he barked and lunged at dogs that came in range of his tether, he now mostly ignores dogs that come in his sight, but will overwhelm dogs that he comes in physical contact with. In time, Jude may do well with children and dogs, but he’s not there yet. For Jude’s well being, it would be best if his potential adopters met him before adoption. His current home is in north Georgia, close to Chattanooga, TN. A visit can be scheduled to see him and experience his mannerisms. He is a wonderful dog who’s earned a second chance at life. With a bit more work, Jude can become a loving companion. Jude is being fostered in northwest Georgia. His adoption fee is $350.00 to offset his vetting and to help our other Britttanys in need. He can be transported up to 1400 miles via our Canine Railroad. Adoption applications can be found on our website www.nbran.org. For more information, contact [email protected].
