Bruiser is looking for a calm, loving home where he can relax, feel secure, and simply enjoy spending time with his people. He would thrive in an environment that provides consistency, routine, and companionship.

A meet and greet at the shelter will be required to ensure a good fit for Bruiser, any resident pets, and the adopter.

Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs.
