Pet of the Week: Brownie!

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — Join us at Prime News at 7 to meet this week’s Pet of the Week: Brownie!

This little gentleman has the softest chocolate coat and the sweetest puppy dog eyes. Brownie is a gentle soul who is timid at first, but melts like a Hershey Kiss into a cuddle puddle the moment you offer a tender touch or a tasty treat.

Brownie is 2-years-old and weighs just over 40 lbs. He is affectionate and snuggly, wanting nothing more than to curl right up into your lap. New situations are scary for him, as he was likely not properly socialized in his puppyhood, and how he’s discovering a lot of new surroundings and new people. Because of this, we think Brownie would do best in a home with teenage children and older who can respect his boundaries and help coax him out of his comfort zone enough to gain confidence but not overwhelm him.

Brownie is very playful and active once he feels safe. He loves to play rowdily with other dogs, and prefers bigger playmates. He can be a little too rough with small dogs and seems to have a prey drive towards cats, so dogs his size and larger are best suited for this fella. He’d also be content as the only pet in the home, too!

We think Brownie will be a wonderful companion for the right person or family who’s looking for an A+ cuddler, a playful friend, and a stellar dog. If you feel that your household is a match for his needs, we encourage you to come meet Brownie at HES today!
