Brulee - Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Fredericksburg, Virginia

Meet Brulee: Your Future Sassy BFF!

Looking for a little extra spice and a whole lot of love in your life? Meet Brulee! She's a vibrant, fun-loving girl who knows exactly what she wants-and usually, that's you.

The Vibe
**The Ultimate Star: I have a total "main character" personality. I am full of life, unapologetically sassy, and believe the world revolves around me.
**Attention Hog: Need a shadow? I love *all* kinds of attention and am not afraid to do a little routine to get your eyes on me.

The Diet & Hobbies
**Food is Life: Highly food-motivated and live for mealtime! I happily munch on beef and lamb, and currently use a slow-feeder bowl because I get *very* enthusiastic about my dinners.
**Squeak Enthusiast: If a toy makes noise, I'm obsessed. Squeaky toys are my absolute jam.
**Master Snuggler: When it's finally time to power down for a nap, I turn into a total softie and want to cuddle right up next to a doggie sibling or my favorite human.

Work in Progress
**Potty Training: I'm still very young and learning the ropes! I currently use an indoor potty tray at my foster home and am just starting to practice going outside. I will need a patient family ready to help me master this routine.

**Brulee's Final Pitch: If you're ready for a fun-loving, cuddly, and fiercely entertaining new best friend, come meet me!

I'm a cute puppy still working on housetraining and crate training. I like to chew on everything, play, eat, and then sleep!

As a puppy, I am required to go to training within 90 days of my adoption with a certified trainer.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

ODHS adoption events are typically at 3602 Lafayette Blvd, Wednesdays 5-7pm, Saturdays 12-4pm, and Sundays 11am-1pm. Please check our Facebook...
