About Bruno

Bruno is ready to find his forever home after being abandoned with his friend King. At just 2 years old, this handsome German Shepherd Dog is full of energy and personality! He thrives on interaction and is friendly with everyone he meets, showing off his social side. Being a typical young GSD, Bruno requires an active lifestyle filled with exercise and playtime. He's currently learning leash manners and enjoys his toys. However, he needs to be placed with King or be an only pet, as he does not get along with dogs outside of their bond. Additionally, he hasn't encountered children before, so that aspect is a mystery. A physically fenced yard is a must for Bruno to ensure he can run and play safely. Neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped, this boy is all set for a new chapter. Bruno has been house trained and is eager to be part of an active family. If you think you can give him the love he needs, don’t hesitate to reach out! Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
