Hi, I'm Brittany Ears. I'm a super sweet, adorable, cuddly and playful young dog! My fur is white and I'm believed to be a Great Pyrenees mix. I'm already taking to my training with my awesome foster family. I'm crate trained, already learning some basic commands and I'm getting pretty good at walking on a leash. I'm good with other dogs, cats and children that are friendly with me, too. I have had all of my primary vetting including being spayed, HW tested and I'm on prevention, vaccinations, and I'm microchipped. If you're looking for a great pup, fill out an application at FriscoHumaneSociety.com. There is no obligation, it just starts the conversation.

Adopting a dog in Muenster
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
