Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Bruce was rescued from a neglectful owner that failed to provide him with veterinary care, leaving him ungroomed & covered in painful hair mattes, very emaciated & with a case of untreated Valley Fever. I took him into my care to nurse him back to health but cannot have a dog permanently. Valley Fever is very treatable & he has responded well to medication, is gaining weight & on the path to full recovery.
He looks like a real life Teddy Bear & pics do not do him justice.. he needs a hair trim & looks a bit like a very cute mop in photos currently but his adorable “teef” he smiles with make up for it. He is 4 yrs old, fully house trained, loves my 3 cats, lived with other dogs, very sweet temperament and just an overall sweetheart. He loves giving hugs & very much so loves people despite his unfortunate past. He deserves a loving forever home!
Will provide a full vet exam showing a clean bill of health, neuter him,& have him groomed before going to his new home. Guaranteed best buddy!
