Jake's Story

Jake is a pup with a bright mind and a big heart. He is curious, alert, and eager to learn — the kind of pup who notices everything and loves having a job to do (even if that job is following you around). He's still very much a puppy, which means he's playful, energetic, and soaking up training like a sponge. Jake would thrive with an adopter who enjoys walks, games, and teaching new skills. With consistency and patience, he's going to be an amazing companion. Jake would do best in a home that can give him mental stimulation, exercise, and structure, and in return he'll give loyalty, enthusiasm, and lots of happy tail wags. If you're looking for a smart, fun young dog to grow up with you, Jake is ready to be your sidekick.

Good with cats: Can be a bit much for cats, would do best in a home without them Good with young children (under 10): Very friendly but due to herding instincts, we'd prefer older children Shy or confident: Confident Barks: Sometimes when playing Apartment qualified: No due to age and potential size restrictions Health concerns or special needs: None We believe this puppy/dog is possibly a heeler mix and was born around 7-22-2025. This puppy/dog is fostered in a private home in Lincoln. The adoption fee is $300 which helps cover the cost of vetting procedures. Adoptable pets will have received age-appropriate vaccines and dewormings, a microchip, heartworm test (if applicable) and a spay/neuter. If you're interested in adopting this puppy/dog, please submit an inquiry or email BraveAnimalRescue@gmail.com to ask about our adoption process (please check your spam or junk email if you do not hear back from us within a few business days). We are 100% volunteer staffed and will respond to your email as soon as possible. After you have submitted an and been approved, we will set up a meet and greet between you and the puppy/dog. Please be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to learn more about Brave Animal Rescue and our mission.

Brave Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy

The first step is completing the adoption application. We are an all-volunteer staff and will be reviewing your application within the next 1-5 days. After approval of your application, we will hopefully set up a time for you to meet our foster and potentially adopt. Please take a moment to review our frequently asked questions below so you can learn more about the adoption process and some of our policies. We may receive multiple applications for one pet, especially puppies and kittens. We take every application seriously and must make a decision on multiple qualifying applicants. Preference is given to applicants with verified vetting history, home ownership, and, for dogs, those with a fenced in yard. (Please make sure to call your previously used veterinarian and give them permission to release records to us.) In the event you are selected, we will coordinate a meeting with you/your family and the pet. All appointments are held at a facility we rent here in Lincoln unless very special circumstances require meeting at your home, or the foster's home. Frequently Asked Questions -- Please Read Before Emailing Us 1. Can I view the animal at a location? Unfortunately, no. Our pets are all kept in private foster homes in/near Lincoln. You must first complete the application above -- after your application is reviewed, we set up private meet and greets here in Lincoln. 2. How does the process work? A meet and greet to adopt is set up after approval of your application. To expedite your approval, be sure to provide the contact of any vets you have used (if applicable), as well as a phone number or email address of your landlord (if applicable). If this is your first pet, please be sure to provide your references' email address. We will review your application in the next 3-5 days. You will be informed of our decision either way. Once you are approved and we have mutually selected an animal we think would be a match, we will set up an adoption appointment. That can happen as early as this upcoming weekend. We require meeting all members of the family at the appointment, including your family dog(s). (Please note that doesn't apply to kitten meet and greets). At that appointment, you will be able to meet the foster pet and parent and learn all about the animal. If we are in agreement the animal is a match for you, you would be able to adopt and take home with you that day. 3. Is it first come, first to adopt? No. We make matches based on best fit. This is why we depend on detailed answers in your application. In the event multiple families are approved for the same pet, we give preference to those adopters with great vetting references. In addition, if you are applying for a dog, preference is given to homes with fenced yards and home ownership. 4. What type of vetting do you require for current pets? We require at a minimum all dogs be current on rabies, distemper, lepto, and parvo vaccines. We also require heartworm preventative. Cats must have their rabies vaccines at a minimum. All pets in the home must be altered (even if you are applying for the same sex). 5. Is the adoption donation negotiable? Unfortunately, no. Our fees include the price of age appropriate vaccinations, spay/neuter, and a microchip. You'll find our adoption fees are quite affordable when pricing these necessary procedures.
