About Briggs

Briggs is a charming Bichon/Yorkie mix who's eager to find his forever home. At 3 years old, this 10-pound bundle of joy is filled with affection and prefers being by your side, soaking up all the attention you can give. He interacts well with other dogs and even cats, but he tends to get possessive about his human. To thrive, Briggs needs a household where he can be the center of attention without competition. A few points to keep in mind about him: - He dislikes being left alone and thrives on companionship. - His vocal nature means he might not be suited for apartment living. - Briggs would do best with older children who can respect his space. If a loyal little companion with a big personality sounds like what you're looking for, Briggs could be the perfect match for you! Adoption Fee: $400. He is already spayed and up to date on vaccinations. All dogs are fostered in homes, so an application needs to be submitted before meeting any animals. Processing can take up to a week as our entirely volunteer team finds the right homes for our animals. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
