My story

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

Bruno is a sweet, young thing who turned 3 years old on Valentine's Day! He is currently located in Calgary. This poor guy has been rehomed way too many times: once because he couldn't live with cats, another time due to lack of pet friendly housing, and now because of family issues. We would really like him to go to a home that will commit to doing whatever it takes to keep him forever. Keep reading to find out more about Bruno!



Likes: Fetch, Belly rubs, Snuggles on the couch or in bed, preferably leaning against your legs or wrapped in them! Kisses between the eyes. LOVES bones, very food motivated. Loves snow and doesn’t seem to mind rain all that much, especially if play time or stimulation exercises are involved. 



Bruno takes tugowar *very* seriously and can be impatient and mouthy when he plays, so it is best he not go to a home with toddlers. He does really like kids and would be fine with older dog-savvy kids, he just needs some work on his manners.



He has a healthy prey drive and has a history of not being able to live with cats, so will be most successful in a home without cats or small dogs.



Bruno also has some barrier reactivity and will bark at people on the street or other dogs/animals, when walking on leash or in the car. This is currently a work in progress.



We would recommend a home with a similar sized female dog only. He has had many positive interactions with other dogs off leash, but will react on leash or if provoked.



He was previously crate trained, but has also lived in a home that he was left to roam and has never caused any harm to the house. 



He loves enjoying the woods with his people and their friends.  Once a bond is established and recall is good he is great off leash and loves to adventure but never goes far. 



Knows all basic commands. 



A very loyal and sweet companion. He is very goofy, adventurous and a great partner to spend time with. He gives the sweetest kisses! 



He is a gentle giant and will wiggle his way in to cuddling harder and closer any opportunity he has. 



House trained to be left for the day if working and greets you adorably when you get home. Very well behaved in the house!



He is energetic and would play any time if the opportunity presented itself, however he loves a relaxing day of cuddles as well. 



Bruno has been neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. His adoption fee is $500. All adopters must agree not to use any punitive training methods including, but not limited to, leash corrections; pinning; alpha rolls; and prong, pinch, choke, shock, or e-collars. Apply to adopt Bruno by submitting our adoption application at https://adoptadobe.com/adoption-application/. All adoptions require a home visit prior to finalization.
