Meet Bruce – Your New Best Friend! 🐾 Say hello to Bruce, a big-hearted, lovable tripawd with the most endearing, dopey personality! Born on December 18th, 2016, Bruce is a gentle giant who's looking for a forever home where he can be the one and only star of the show. Bruce has been through quite the journey, originally joining SRS in February 2019. His amazing, kind nature meant that he was quickly adopted, but after 5 and a half happy years, he came back to us through no fault of his own. Bruce has always been an absolute joy to be around, but unfortunately, his previous families’ circumstances led to his return.
Bruce was adopted again by a wonderful family who have given him the life we always wanted for him but due to a very sad loss Bruce is once again looking for a place to call home. His family are devastated and will be working with us to find him the perfect place. He’s now hoping to find the perfect family who will love him unconditionally for the rest of his life.
Why Bruce is So Special:
❤️ Bruce is a larger breed dog who has an amputated front leg, but this doesn’t stop him from living life to the fullest! He’s incredibly strong, loves to walk (though at a leisurely pace!), and enjoys nothing more than sniffing around and exploring the world around him. Water is his second love, and he gets around with no problems at all.
❤️ Bruce is a very social boy! He loves everyone he meets, whether it’s humans or other dogs. He’s been well-socialised by his previous family, who regularly had him walked by a group dog walker, so he’s a pro at meeting new furry friends.
❤️ Bruce is very easygoing in the house. He loves to sleep, eat, and shower his humans with affection. He’s not a fan of loud noises and might flinch if something drops, but he’s quick to settle and return to his relaxed self.
❤️ Bruce is strong on the lead but has a lovely, steady pace. He’s more of a “sniff-everything” kind of dog than a long-distance runner! He enjoys his walks, but shorter, slower walks (no more than 30 minutes) every second day are just perfect for him. He’s a true diva at times, especially if he doesn’t get his way—he’ll dramatically crash to the ground and refuse to get up. But trust us, it’s all part of his charm!
What Bruce Needs:
• A home without small children or cats, as he has had trouble adjusting to crying babies in the past. He has however been great with older children and loves a tummy scratch whilst out on walks.
• Bruce is great with other dogs both in and out of the home, however, for walking he is often better on his own as he likes to take his time and sniff a LOT. He could be homed with dogs but his family need to be aware they may need to do separate walks.
• A garden would be ideal for him to potter around, and one without steps (he needs space to navigate).
• A family that is happy to give him lots of affection and doesn’t mind a bit of diva behavior (he’s not afraid to demand attention with his funny “badooms!”).
• Bruce would do best in a home where he doesn’t have to walk with other dogs—he likes his walks at his own pace.
Bruce’s Stats:
• Weight: Approx. 29kg (he’s a big boy!)
• Vaccinated, neutered, and up-to-date with flea and worm treatment.
• Loves getting in the car for adventures to parks and dog fields.
• He can do stairs just fine when given the space, and he has no trouble getting in and out of the car. • He eats complete dry food twice a day and loves his joint supplements.
Bruce is the ultimate companion who will bring so much joy, laughter, and unconditional love into your life.
