"BRAN" IN FOSTER -playful med size Lab mix - really likes dogs

 UPDATE 5/30/23 Adopted

Bran really likes dogs, and they like him too.  He's excited when first in a new home (like most dogs) and will need a cool person to allow him to settle down/feel comfortable (ps- basic info for ANY rehomed dog!)

Bran is affectionate, smart, and listens well. He already knows sit, lie down, Out of the kitchen, go lie down....He responds well to a whistle when in the yard. On leash, it is harder to get his attention but he's learning that saying his name, turning towards me, gets him a treat

He seems much younger than 5 yrs old -  the age guesstimate  the shelter made. Mystery mix, maybe some Viszla? or hound, and lab?  He's a very easy medium size, lean build, with very shiny curly on his back, black fur with white highlights. Did great being bathed, is crate trained. Allowed front nail trim and teeth cleaning on only the 3rd day in foster and  have seen no aggression in him towards handling (please don't be stupid about it though, always let the dog's body language tell you if it is ok to proceed with handling like this) He is  house-trained  already, but he did mark a few times inside the house in the first day or two - NOT unusual for a dog in a new place, esp where other dogs have been (and accidents previously) Be watchful and be patient and clean, spay any area with an enzyme cleaner like "Anti- Icky Poo" to remove any scent to avoid further marking accidents)  Bran may prefer someone who was not gone for a long day - he is currently crated when foster leaves the home for a few hours, but am unsure how he would be left loose when alone without another dog with im but new home could work up to that. He would love a compatible dog in his new home. (living with 3 dogs in his foster  home)

I am Bran, a five year old lab mix looking for a loving family. My finders say I was friendly with their dogs. I am really happiest being where my people are. I would love nothing more than the curl up on your lap or trot along with you on walks. If you are seeking a relaxed and easy-going friend to keep you company through your life, then I am the dog for you! Through thick and thin, I will be by your side.
