About Bruiser

Bruiser is a 4 to 5-year-old male Saint Bernard mix, brimming with charm. With a medium energy level, he requires a reasonable amount of daily activity to keep him content. He’s the type that greets you with loose, wiggly energy and enjoys snuggling close for some affection. While he pulls on his leash a bit, obedience training can easily address this behavior. Being food motivated, he already knows how to sit and is eager to learn more. In the kennel, Bruiser gets along well with other dogs, though he tends to be less fond of cats. Keep in mind that dogs are usually tested with other canines of similar size, and proper introductions are crucial, especially with other pets at home. When it comes to children, his suitability will vary based on their ages, so always supervise interactions. Behavior evaluations are a snapshot of a dog’s demeanor at a specific time, so new adopters should be ready to invest time in training and responsible management. Researching breed traits can also help in finding the right fit for your family. Be aware that many dogs in shelters may have been exposed to kennel cough, which is contagious among dogs, so consult your vet if you have concerns. If you have any additional questions about Bruiser, reach out to the adoption counselors at the Joplin Humane Society. Give Bruiser a chance to be part of your family! What are you waiting for?
