Adopted ~ Brandy ~ the girl just wants to have fun, fun, fun!

November 2011: So pleased to finally be able to post that this lovely girl has been adopted! She really is fantastic, I’m sure her new family will share many years of fun with her. Be very happy, Brandy:)

This beautiful young girl is Brandy and she is at Bath Cats & Dogs Home and looking for an amazing forever home of her very own. She is such a sweet girl and I’m amazed that someone hasn’t fallen for her already. Although couch potatoes need not apply for this lovely girl!

While I was editing her photos, Cyndi Lauper’s Girls Just Want to Have Fun! started playing on the radio – and I thought this was the perfect song for Brandy:)

Pretty Brandy taking a treat very nicely

Brandy is a four year old, female Staffie (Staffordshire Bull Terrier) cross Collie cross Labrador (though I must admit, before I read that, I had her down as a Staffie cross Whippet sort!). She has a very pretty and dainty face and super model legs – and did I mention, she loves to have fun?! (Video proof at the end too!)

Think she rather liked the toys I took in for her!

The Safestix has gone down very well with the dogs in rescue – a fun, safe toy for them to play with:)

The rescue describes Brandy as friendly and affectionate towards people she knows well, although she is very nervous and wary around new people. While she wasn’t all over me for cuddles, she was certainly very happy to play with me – we had a good few games of tug and she was fine about me throwing toys for her etc.

The rescue says Brandy seems to be a lot more wary around men, but she is not aggressive in anyway. They advise that although she takes a while to come around and get to know new people, once she knows you she is very loyal and loving.  If you are interested in adopting Brandy and feel you could offer her the wonderful home she deserves, you will need to visit the rescue and get to know her by walking her at least a few times to build up the bond. It will be very much worth it, dogs are such wonderful creatures and Brandy is a special girl.

Isn’t she a pretty girl?

Brandy walks well on a harness, as she tends to pull on the lead. The rescue confirms that she is fine to be left for short periods. She has become a bit stressed when left alone in a paddock at the rescue, because she wants to be with people. She didn’t make any attempt to leave while she was in with me and we’d only just met. She just wanted to play:)

Like I said, couch potatoes need not apply:lol:

The rescue tells me that Brandy has been mixed with other dogs on site and she is not dog aggressive, but doesn’t mix with them well in the kennel environment. They therefore consider that she would be best homed as an only dog. She is looking for an active household without any young children but could live with children aged 14+.

From my time with her, I have a vision of her living a fulfilled life with a loving family, maybe with teenage children (or older), and very much enjoying all the fun times they have together as a family.

Smiling and ready for fun – and she looks like she might rather enjoy a belly rub too:wink:

I really like Brandy, a lot. I love dogs with energy and she definitely has that. She seems a very sweet young girl and I have wondered why she is still waiting for a home, but then of course you only have to look at any rescue’s website to be reminded of just how many wonderful dogs are sat waiting for their forever home. I really hope Brandy doesn’t have to wait much longer. She very much deserves to find an amazing home.

If you feel you can offer Brandy a loving and appropriate home, you will need to contact Bath Cats & Dogs Home directly on 01225 787 321, or complete the Home’s online rehoming form, which can be found here.

Please let them know that you saw Brandy at Poochie Freak.

Please watch these little video clips too as they show you just what a lovely and fun girl, Brandy is. Did I mention how much I like her?:)

Brandy’s carer asked me afterwards if her tail had stopped wagging at all – I think you can guess my answer!:)
