Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello everyone! My name is Bruce! I am 10 years old and I'm a happy little guy. I've been in rescue for a while and I'm all ready for my furever home. I heard my foster mom say I was a chihuahua, so I used her phone to Google 'rat terrier' and then I posed next to the images. I think she got the hint. I am a handsome little one, weighing in at 11 lbs. I am dainty and bouncy on a leash and I do love a nice stroll. I love treats and pupcups too. I have 2 foster brothers that I get along with just fine. I need a home with only a mom. I am mostly housebroken, except for the occasional accident. When I am a little bit cold, and you are not sharing your blanket, I will tap you on the arm with my paw until you do. I will also perch on the back of the sofa and gaze out the window with my little tail wagging, when I see you. I came into rescue fairly healthy, but my eyes did need some attention. I saw a doggy doctor and he said my eye pressures are ok, I have an old injury that's stable. It doesn't hamper my ability to see.... I can walk around just fine. If you are interested in meeting me, and possibly being my furever family, please contact my favorite rescue at saveourcockerspaniels.org to fill out an application.
