Meet Bruce! 🌟 This delightful 4.5-year-old sheepdog doodle mix is here to steal hearts and bring joy into your life. Bruce comes with a little quirk—a touch of nervousness around new faces—but let that not deter you! Once he warms up, he transforms into a snuggly companion who will beg for your love and attention. Yes, this big boy thinks he’s a lap dog! 🐶 He’ll cuddle up next to you wherever you are, possibly even trying to wiggle his way into your lap like a charming little rascal! Bruce is an absolute gem with school-aged kids, and while he’s not sure if he’s met toddlers or babies, his foster mom believes he’d be just fine with them too! With a heart full of playfulness, he adores playing with his foster siblings and follows you around the house as your devoted buddy. Talk about loyalty! ❤️ Now, Bruce is quite the smart cookie and is learning new tricks every day. However, like any superstar in training, he could use a little time and patience—especially when it comes to barking indoors and sharing attention with his furry friends. But fear not! This playful lad is eager to learn and brighten your days. Bruce dreams of a yard where he can run free—he's like the wind! 🌬️ A fenced house would be ideal for him, as he loves to zoom around. Just be sure to keep an eye on him when you’re opening doors; he’s a bit of an escape artist! But he’s only had a couple of close calls, and he’s potty trained—he’ll let you know when he REALLY needs to go! And guess what? Bruce is a champion in his crate—he sleeps well and keeps it clean while waiting for his foster mom to return. 🚗 He enjoys car rides and walks, although he’ll need a little help with his excitement and leash-pulling. He loves toys and chewing on bully sticks, so get ready for some playful fun! Bruce has a beautiful poodle-type coat, which means he’ll need some regular grooming to keep that fluff looking fabulous. 💇‍♂️ Bruce is just waiting for someone with a heart full of love to call his own.
