Bree (Bonded to Laura) - Rhodesian Ridgeback and Irish Terrier Dog for Adoption in Abbotsford, British Columbia

Bree & Laura: Two Sisters, One Extremely Important Plot Twist

Bree and Laura are 1-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback/Irish Terrier mixes, with Bree weighing 29 pounds and Laura a positively diminutive 26 pounds. They are sisters, best friends, and compelling evidence that sometimes the universe accidentally makes a two-for-one masterpiece.

These girls are sweet, playful, dog friendly, and beautifully devoted to each other. Bree tends to approach new situations with a little more circumspection, while Laura helps provide the essential sisterly reassurance of, "Girl, it's fine." Together, their confidence blossoms. They play, explore, investigate, and generally conduct themselves like two tiny woodland cryptids who have recently discovered that couches exist.

And yes, they really do need each other. This isn't a cute marketing gimmick cooked up because their photos look adorable together. Their bond is genuine, stabilizing, and rather extraordinary. Where one hesitates, the other encourages. Where one goes, the other is usually thinking, bet.

They're young, compact, hilarious, and still becoming more themselves every day. What they need now is one home willing to make room for 52 pounds of combined sisterhood, eight legs, two suspicious little faces, and an absolutely preposterous amount of potential.

Adopting one great dog is excellent.

Accidentally acquiring the whole franchise? Elite behavior.
