About Bristol

Bristol has officially arrived and is safe with her amazing foster Dee in West Newbury ❤️

It’s hard to believe this sweet girl was abused and used for breeding because despite everything she’s been through, Bristol remains incredibly loving and gentle. She truly deserves the very best home — one filled with patience, kindness, and all the love she has missed out on. We believe Bristol is about 3 years old. She rides excellent in the car and has already met one of the dogs in her foster home. She was a little unsure at first, which is completely understandable.

Ideal Home

A home filled with patience, kindness, and love. Slow introductions and proper decompression time are strongly recommended so she can continue to build confidence and feel safe.

Ongoing Health

Bristol has been spayed and vaccinated.

Training & Support

Bristol is house-trained and knows basic commands. As always, we strongly recommend slow introductions and proper decompression time so she can continue to build confidence and feel safe.
