My story
I am a sweet calm, 2 year old Bassett mix named Sally. But you can call me Daisy as I prefer to be called. I came to BROOD after my owner couldn't care for me anymore. And BROOD has so many other Daisy's that wanted to name me something different. I wasn't looking my best when I was rescued, I was pretty thin and needed to gain a few pounds. I'm looking and feeling so much better now and ready for my forever home!I am working on my housetraining. I often forget to potty when I am outside because I am having so much fun playing and tracking down all the smells. I am very shy and can take a bit of time to warm up to new people and dogs. But once I feel safe and comfortable, I am a snuggle buddy. I am very quiet and never bark. Maybe that's why loud noises startle me so much. I would not do well in an apartment or a loud city because of all the commotion. I love children but would likely be best with older children that aren't so noisy. I would do fine in a home without a fenced yard but must always be on a leash then when we go outside. The first loud noise I hear and I will run to get as far away as I can. I am slowly learning to not be fearful of noises in my foster home, but any type of fan is my number one enemy. I am very loving and loyal once I warm up to new situations. I recently found the fun that is playing with squeaky toys! I am also very calm and laid back considering my young age. I am excited when my family comes home or when it's time to go out on a walk. But always ready to cuddle on the couch when it's time to relax. I will need a patient family to give me some time to adjust to a new life. Can that be you?? Please contact BROOD today!!! My adoption fee is $250.**Only BROOD-approved adopters can meet a dog (no exceptions). Our adoption application is on the BROOD website at https://brood-va.org/adoptionapp/.
We adopt to residents of Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, DC, Delaware, and southern Pennsylvania.
Do not apply to adopt from BROOD if you live in another state.
We require a virtual home visit and a veterinary reference.
The age of many BROOD dogs is unknown, as very few come with official records.
The estimate on the dog's age is usually the initial estimate given by the receiving shelter, which may be different from that given at the time of the initial checkup.
Different veterinarians may also give different ages, and those different opinions are sometimes reflected on the record.
***BROOD's adoption fees are determined based on the age of the dog. 10/01/2023
