About This Dog

Bruno's ideal home

Bruno is a 7-year-old sweetheart looking for a calm, adult-only home where he can truly relax and be adored. He’s a happy little character who enjoys meeting new people and absolutely loves being picked up and cuddled. Medium in energy, Bruno enjoys his walks and travels well in the car, but he can be conflicted when meeting unfamiliar dogs and may bark at them on lead. Once he knows another dog, however, he can walk along nicely. He has previously lived with a cat and could do so again with sensible introductions and good management. Bruno is housetrained, using puppy pads by the back door as well as toileting in the garden. He will need a home where someone is around initially, as he likes to follow his foster carer and cannot be left alone until fully settled. He does have some medical issues that can be discussed in more detail with the centre.

Could you be Bruno's perfect match?

Bruno would thrive in a calm, affectionate household with adults who can offer him companionship and reassurance. He prefers adult company and would not be suited to a home with children. He does have a typical watchdog streak and may bark at the postman, but this is all part of his charming personality. Most importantly, Bruno must be rehomed with his best friend Hugo. They are closely bonded, sleep cuddled up together, and take great comfort from one another’s presence. If you have room in your heart and home for two devoted companions who will reward you with loyalty, cuddles, and plenty of love, Bruno (and Hugo!) could be the perfect match.
