Meet Bruiser, the Doberdor! This good boy epitomizes all the best qualities of a Doberman/Labrador –smart, affectionate, loyal, goofy and calm. He’s currently living the good life with his foster parents and doggie brother, where he has lots of fluffy beds to nap on and so many treats to snack on. Sadly though, this was not always the case. Bruiser came to Needy Paws after spending the first 7 years of his life living in a barn. He has never had a home or a family to call his own. Despite his rough start, this sweet boy has nothing but love for every person he meets. His favorite activities include following his foster parents everywhere, snuggling, getting pets, giving kisses, and
eating all the treats. He has no formal training, but his foster mom says he’s a good doggie citizen. He’s housebroken, quiet, comes when he’s called, and easily picks up on rules. Bruiser has full reign of the house during the day and doesn’t require crating at night. Basically, he’s just happy to be with you! Bruiser has waited a lifetime (his lifetime) for love and a warm place to call home. Please help us find him the forever family he truly deserves.
