Brynn was found in New Mexico with a broken-off rope knotted around her neck. She was infested with ticks and was so, so afraid. Pittie Posse stepped in to save her and had her brought to Maine. She is a new arrival, and loving her foster family. She's really opened up.

She had to have TEN painful, broken teeth removed. They also found clear evidence of past trauma on both of her front paws.

Despite all of this, Brynn is still the sweetest girl, with soulful, hopeful eyes. She’s really coming out of her shell! Her foster says,

She didn’t know how to dog inside a house at first! Slick floors are still a little scary for her, but she’s such a happy girl and her personality just shines!

She's a big fan of naps, squeaky toys, and snuggles on the couch!
