Bruce

As I am so torn to pieces writing this , I am praying that I can find a home for a smart, sweet beautiful dog. Bruce has been with my son and I for 18 months. He was scheduled to be euthanized and we saved him from that fate. He has been a Blessing and a such a joy to have. Unfortunately, my son is relocating and where he is going to reside, pets are not allowed. My work schedule will not allow to me to give Bruce the time, attention and proper care he deserves. Here in NYC, the shelters euthanize after 70 days I believe and he doesn’t deserve that cruel fate. He is too good for that. I have tried to no avail to find him a home. I am praying that someone can take him in and give him the life he deserves.
