Name: Bruno
Breed: dachshund
Age: 9 years

Coat: red smooth
Adoption Fee: $175

Vetting Status: neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, dewormed, heartworm negative and maintained on preventatives

Bruno was surrendered to rescue when is human mom passed & her family was unable to care for him. Bruno was sad with all the changes in his world, but quickly adjusted to his foster home & conned his way into the "big bed" & earned the title of  "sweetest-most-perfect-foster-ever".
 
Bruno adores squeek toys, chewie sticks, belly rubs, & tolerates canine play buddies.  Cats are a question mark, but school age kids who respect his space & know how to throw the occasional toy (or potato chip) in his direction seem cool with Bruno though.

Speaking of chips, cookies, & the like.... don't fall for Bruno BBE's (big brown eyes).  He is NOT starving, but is actually on a strict Doggie Fat Camp program to trim some of the extra blubber acquired prior to rescue.  Starting out at 25lbs, he is down to 19 & on his way to a trim 15-16lb target weight.

Bruno is leash trained, housetrained &  *loves* to go on car rides... though he'd prefer if they were to McD's or Petco... not to a vet office. He is also crate trained, but would much prefer to snuggle with you in the "big bed" if allowed.

If you think Bruno is the dog for you, please fill out an adoption application today!
