My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

As HAHS now has several adoption locations, please contact Rachel directlyat 913.638.8637 or lashana@juno.com for find out when and where you can meet BRUCE.

This handsome guy is Bruce. Bruce is a Lab/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix, who is a little over a year. Bruce is a wonderful dog, who was well trained by whomever owned him prior to his appearance in the shelter. He has only been in his foster home for a few days, but his foster family is very impressed. Despite being young, he is very well mannered and reasonably calm, with some understandable excitement about being back in a home. He is house trained and crate trained. He knows a few commands, such as sit and down. He walks fairly well on a leash. He is happy to be learning to play with his foster dog siblings, and is just figuring out how to initiate and maintain playing with them. He is very affectionate with all of the humans in his foster home, including his 4 year old foster human brother. As he is coming out of his shell his foster family is finding a friendly, happy, anxious to please, and well-trained dog in their home. He will make someone a wonderful companion and/or family dog. He also could easily and quickly be trained to be a walking or running partner. If you are looking for a dog who already has most of the rough edges smoothed out, but is still young enough and eager to be molded into the type of pet you want, Bruce could be your perfect dog.
