This is Bria, a smart, spunky, and energetic pup who’s ready for her forever home! This 58-pound Pointer/Hound mix is almost 5 yrs old and she has completed the Leash on Life Prison Pup Program with flying colors.
Bria absolutely loves going on walks, sniffing out critters, and chasing anything that rustles in the bushes or trees. She has a high prey drive, so playing fetch and tug are some of her favorite activities. Her handler says she’s highly intelligent, food-motivated, and always excited to learn new things. Bria has already mastered commands like “sit,” “down,” “stay,” “come,” “no,” “off,” “leave it,” “place,” and more! She walks beautifully on a loose leash and is both kennel and housetrained.
Since completing her training, Bria has even added a few impressive tricks to her repertoire—she can give paw, high five, roll over, speak, and will even perform a backflip off your chest! She responds to both verbal commands and hand gestures, making her a true superstar when it comes to training.
Bria is a confident, alpha female who prefers the company of people over other dogs. She would do best as the only dog in the household and needs slow introductions to other dogs.
Bria loves to chase birds and will even try to climb after them, so she’ll need an active home where she can burn off all her playful energy.
While Bria can play rough, she’s a total sweetheart who loves cuddling up in your lap after a day of fun and she can chill with you, too. She would thrive in a home with adults or teenagers who understand her need for mental and physical stimulation. Bria also does better meeting strangers when they let her come to them, and a few treats will definitely win her over.
If you’re looking for an energetic, loyal companion who’s as smart as she is playful, Bria could be the perfect match for you! Could you be the one to give Bria the loving home she deserves?
Bria is spayed, microchipped, up to date on all her shots, a LOL Prison graduate and is eager to find her forever family! Please contact us at [email protected] for more details.
