About Bruce

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog
  • General Color: Black

Hi … my name is Bruce and here are some things you need to know about me:

Bruce is cute as a button and almost perfect!  He only barks when he has a reason to and then not for long. He’s really smart and pretty flexible … he adjusted to his new foster home’s routine within 24 hrs. He loves to cuddle, wants to be next to ‘his person’ all the time, but he is not pushy about it. He will stand on his hind legs and politely ask if he might sit in your lap. If I say ‘no,’ he goes on the couch.  He is an equal opportunity snuggle bug … he does as well with men as with women. He has a bit of separation anxiety but calms himself after a little while. The only thing this dog asks for is that someone throw a stick or a ball for him several times a day. And that he be allowed outside a lot. He has caught 2 mice so far and is working on the mole. He is a fantastic terrier and will make a perfect pet for someone who will spend time with him.  I should mention that he never looked twice at the parrot in his foster home, but does chase the outside birds.  Are you ready to love him forever?

Please read the rest of Bruce's bio below so you can really get to know (and love) him!
