Hello! I am Bracken. My foster mom named me that because she found me all alone at Brackenridge park. I am not sure how I got there but so glad she found me and took me in. I was quite nervous to go with a complete stranger but once she introduced me to her dogs, and I was loving life.
We got to go for walks everyday around the neighborhood and that made me super happy. The only thing I like more than going for walks and treats and toys. I am not picky and will gladly take any treats you have to offer. If you ask, I will even show you I sit. I am crate trained and house trained. I am a magnet with my people and love to get as much attention and affection as they are willing to give.
I am nervous and unsure of strangers until I can learn to trust them so a house that doesn't have a lot of people coming in would be preferred.
I would love to meet you and get to know you a few times before making the big move. I am always worried when my foster mom and dad leave the house so I bark to remind them I am here waiting for them. I am really looking for a mature forever family that likes to hangout at home and snuggle up on the couch for movie time. I just want my own little family to be a part of.
Bracken has a heart that just wants to be someone's love bug 😊 You have to put in the work, but the rewards are infinite!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
