Bruno Vii is a striking seven-year-old brindle Boxer with a busy wiggle butt and a love for his bonded companion, Sophie V. Wherever Sophie goes, Bruno goes—these two are inseparable, so they need to be adopted together. Backstory: after losing their home and having to live with their former owner in a car, they’re now adjusting well in foster care. Bruno pays close attention when you speak, is picking up how to play with toys, and is particularly fond of rope toys, cheese, car rides, and anything involving food. He’s house trained (though will sulk about going out in the rain) and will quietly stay in his crate for some cheese, but he’s happiest with people nearby. Bruno enjoys playing and wears out Sophie with his energy, but beyond her, he hasn’t been tested with other dogs. He doesn’t have experience with cats. He’s friendly with older children but gets nervous if people, adults or kids, crowd him or get in his face—the safest fit is a home with adults or older children who respect his space. Expect slow introductions with Bruno, especially on leash and around new people. He’s not destructive, doesn’t dig, and isn’t a fence-jumper. Thunderstorms spook him; he’ll seek comfort and quietly tremble by you until it passes. If you’re looking for a pair of Boxers that have already won over their fosters, Bruno and Sophie V are waiting in Hewitt, TX. They’re ready to brighten the calm home they deserve.
