Britta's Story

Meet Britta 🐾<br/><br/>Little Stout Britta , a 1.5-year-old Staffy mix weighing about 40 lbs, is looking for a fun-loving doggie BFF sibling with patient and loving humans.<br/><br/>She's been with us since the end of January, when she arrived with four puppies in tow. They've all since been adopted and settled into their new homes, and now with her maternal duties behind her, it's Britta's turn to settle into her forever home too.<br/><br/>She starts out a little shy with people and still learning to enjoy petting initially, but if there is another dog present, you'll see her lift her tail and become playful and full of joy. That makes it easier for her to accept and trust the humans that come with her new dog friend. After being in a foster home for a few days, she is approaching her foster Mom a little more and starting to follow her around a bit. She wags her tail with some sweet talk, loves butt scratches and cautiously asks for a little affection. She's even given some kisses!<br/><br/>Additionally, Britta walks well on leash with only slight pulling, although squirrels and lizards are apparently very exciting discoveries and may inspire a strong tug or two. Britta is fully potty trained, crate trained, and enjoys chew toys — like many young dogs, she may decide a stray sock or shoe is fair game if she gets bored.<br/><br/>Britta has been our playgroup rock star at the shelter. She enjoys meeting all the dogs and always makes friends quickly. For some dogs her greetings may be a bit forward and she does enjoy a little rowdy play, however, she accepts corrections from other dogs and can be respectful.<br/><br/>Because of her timid nature, Britta is looking for a calmer home with children ages 10+ and no cats, please. A securely fenced yard is also required so she can safely play and build confidence. Most importantly, she needs another friendly, playful dog in the home to show her the ropes and how rewarding a loving human can be. <br/><br/>Watching her learn that love can be gentle and blossom into receiving and giving it, is well worth the patience, time and space she needs to feel safe. <br/><br/>If you have a playful pup looking for a best friend and the patience to let a shy girl bloom at her own pace, Britta may be your perfect match.<br/><br/>Would you like to meet Britta?<br/><br/>Please email adoptions@suncoastanimalleague.org
