3 years old, Male, 45lbs
Located in Huntington Beach
Bruno needs a new home because his family is not able to give him the time and attention he deserves. Per owner:
Bruno loves going for long walks, fetch and playing with ropes / durable chew toys. Lick mats are good too! Bruno is good with cats, people and other dogs. He is a true velcro dog who enjoys tons of love and affection.
Bruno knows his basic commands. He can resource guard his food or toys if you suddenly try to grab them. He also has a bit of an attitude around going into a crate. He is not destructive but definitely needs to be worked and exercised.
