Pet Of The Week – Bruno

We want to introduce you to Bruno! Bruno is a beautiful American Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix who we believe to be only about 1 year old. Bruno was found wandering alone and picked up by Animal Control, who brought him to Green Hills Animal Shelter so he would be safe and cared for while he looks for a Forever Home of his own.

When Bruno first arrived at the shelter he was skinny and suffering from a skin condition. He was terribly scared and was frightened of everything and everyone. It broke our hearts that Bruno didn’t even want to be petted because it scared him so badly to see a hand coming towards him. However, under the frightened façade was a fantastic dog full of hope and love that was just waiting to come out. Bruno went to a foster home and, with lots of love and kindness; his personality began to shine through. In his foster home, Bruno has become more outgoing and playful. He is affectionate and sweet, and very loyal to those that he loves.

If Bruno could describe his perfect Forever Home he would ask for a calm home with a patient family who will show him lots of love while he becomes comfortable and bonds with his people. He would love to be spoiled and treasured, and Bruno promises to reward his family with loyalty and love. He would like to be an indoor dog, so he can feel secure and loved and spend as much time as possible with his family. Bruno gets along well with other dogs and would be happy to share his home with a canine companion, but he does (as do all dogs at the shelter) respectfully request to meet any potential canine siblings prior to adoption to make sure they will be the best of friends.

Bruno will go to his Forever Home neutered, dewormed, heartworm tested, and up to date on all vaccinations including rabies. He is full of love and needs a special family to share it with; could that family be yours?

For more information on Bruno, or any of the pets waiting for their homes at Green Hills Animal Shelter, please phone the shelter at 660-359-2700 or stop by during open business hours. We’ll be looking forward to meeting you!
