Bruno

Meet Bruno!  Handsome, Huggable & Ready for a Home!

At 6 years old, Bruno has the perfect balance of playful energy and laid-back companionship. He’s been waiting far too long for his forever family, and everyone who knows him agrees—it’s finally his turn to be someone’s favorite boy!

This handsome, happy guy weighs about 65 pounds and has a smile that’s impossible to resist. With one ear standing tall and the other adorably flopped over, Bruno is as unique on the outside as he is lovable on the inside. And while he might not technically be lap-dog sized, someone forgot to tell him!

Bruno loves being close to his people, soaking up affection, handing out sweet kisses, and claiming his favorite spot right beside you on the couch. Bruno has settled beautifully into foster care and has shown everyone what a wonderful companion he can be. He’s fully house-trained and crate-trained, and he’s perfectly content relaxing in his crate when his people are away. Around the house, he’s an easygoing guy who enjoys lounging on the couch, savoring a frozen treat, or entertaining himself with his collection of toys. His absolute favorite? A Lamb Chop stuffie, of course!

What about other dogs? Bruno can absolutely thrive as your one and only, soaking up all the love and attention his heart desires. But being an only dog isn’t his only option! Bruno currently lives in a foster home with FIVE doggie friends. He isn’t the type of guy who needs to interact or play with every dog he meets, but he’s happy to share his space with the right canine companions. He does best with friendly, respectful female dogs and may also be a match for a friendly, submissive male. The key is finding dogs who respect his personal space and let him enjoy their company at his own pace. We’re happy to discuss whether your resident dog might be a good fit for Bruno!

Bruno also enjoys his walks and does well on leash, although he’s still working on polishing his manners when excitement gets the better of him. He loves chasing toys even if bringing them back isn’t quite his strong suit yet! Due to his size and enthusiastic personality, Bruno would do best in a home with children ages 10 and older.

Bruno has spent far too much time waiting for someone to choose him. Bruno is past the puppy chaos but still has plenty of life, love, and goofy moments to share. He’s ready for a family who will appreciate his loyal heart, silly side, and love of life’s simple pleasures: couch cuddles, stuffed toys, tasty treats, and simply being near his favorite humans.

And here’s some extra good news: Bruno’s adoption fee has been generously sponsored! If adopted within South Carolina, his adoption fee is just $50. For out of state adopters, it’s $175. Bruno is currently being fostered in South Carolina and can be transported along the East Coast as far north as Maine to meet his forever family.

Could Bruno be the missing piece of your family? Whether he’s your one and only or shares his home with the right doggie friends, he’s ready to be loved and cherished for the wonderful boy he is.
