Critter Details

Sassy is a beautiful black-and-white French Brittany with a big heart and an even bigger personality! This charming little lady adores her people and never turnsdown a good snuggle or hug. She’s happiest as the only dog in the home her love is meant just for you! Sassy enjoys both sturdy store-bought toys and simple homemade ones (an old knotted blanket is a favorite).    She likes her food and toys and isn’t interested in sharing, so a single-dog home is a must. When she gets excited, she may forget her manners and stand up placing her feet on the counter— but a simple “Off!” cue gets her right back on track, especially if she has a soft toy to keep her busy. Without one, she’ll happily greet you with her signature leg hug instead!   After a few minutes of excitement, Sassy settles into a relaxed walk on a loose  leash. She is generally calm and well-mannered on leash, usually ignoring other dogs as long as they keep their distance and not lunging at passing people or dogs. Sassy enjoys being outside when it’s cool or in the evening, though her dark coat can make her a little hard to spot at night. She has near-perfect recall during the day but can turn “come inside” into a playful game once it’s dark. She loves exploring her surroundings and finding a cool spot to rest during her outdoor adventures.   Sassy doesn’t have a strong prey drive but does have some hunt training with an  e-collar. Because she’s a smart and active girl, a secure 6-foot physical fence is an absolute must for her. Sassy is a playful French Brittany who will thrive with an active family ready to  keep up with her. She loves to run and chase tennis balls until your arm falls off —  though she prefers to carry the ball around the yard before deciding to drop it. After plenty of exercise, she settles down nicely to relax on the couch or  anywhere her people are.   Sassy is not a fan of cats, and because she gets so excited when greeting  people, small children should be approached with caution to avoid accidental  knock downs. She’s a typical high-energy French Brittany, full of spirit and charm and longing for love. Sassy is located in northwest Georgia and can be transported up to 1400 miles via our Canine Railroad. Her adoption fee is $400 to offset the cost of vetting and to help other Brittanys in need.  Adoption applications can be found on our website at www.nbran.org.  Our adoption process requires a phone interview, a home visit, and a veterinary reference.  For more information, email brittsnbits@gmail.com.
