Description:

Bruce is a sweet, fun puppy. He has been in a foster home in Minneapolis for a few weeks. His current home is an apartment with one adult and one cat. Bruce has been learning potty training (outside and pads), walking on a leash, playing, and using his crate. He is playful in little bursts of energy, then winds down for a quick nap (often in his crate or on the sofa). He seems to get nervous on walks when other dogs are around. He’d really benefit from having a dog friend to help him play and socialize on doggy terms. 

He barks at noises in the hallway, especially if it sounds like another dog (super normal and something we’re working on). He is not overly anxious but does display anxiety when I leave.

He chases the cat but has caused no harm. He just wants to play. Super good boy and very loving. He usually sleeps in the bed with me and is a good snuggler. 

He just takes a lot of energy and patience to help him go outside for potty breaks as needed, which is often, to not eat cat food and litter, to walk nicely on the leash (we’ve made lots of progress!) and to take naps as needed. He has visited a friend’s fenced yard a few times for running and playing and loved it! He loves the snow too. 
 
He is going to grow into a big, strong, beautiful, loyal dog.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance.  Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
