My story

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

BRUNO IS AVAILABLE FOR OUR FOSTER TO ADOPT PROGRAM!



Introducing Bruno, a 5-year-old, 20-pound male terrier mix hailing from Tijuana. Since arriving in Brooklyn, he's settled in beautifully.



Bruno enjoys long walks, cuddles, and ear scratches.



Bruno is housebroken and working on hos leash skills but making great progress. His forever family will need to continue working with Bruno to reinforce and advance the progress he's been making.



Bruno is an affectionate, derpy, curious pup.



Bruno is working on his crate training and will be vocal at first when left alone in his crate, he is able to settle down fairly quickly. He thrives on post-crate walks to burn off energy.



Bruno loves nothing more than cozying up with his loved ones and equally enjoys both relaxing moments and active adventures. While he could thrive as the sole pet, he may also enjoy the company of another dog with proper introductions.



We recommend  that Bruno finds a home with older children. He is a bit wary of men and will need a slow introduction to know that he is safe. With the right family, Bruno's boundless affection and charm will bring endless joy and companionship.



Vaccinated for rabies, DA2PP, and bordetella. Neutered, heartworm negative, and microchipped. Flea, tick, and heartworm prevention due 4/12.
