Bruno is the cutest little potato around!
Bruno is estimated to be around 5 years old and he is a sweet and sensitive guy looking for his fur-ever home. Bruno is a mellow guy who enjoys the simple things in life like leisurely walks around the neighborhood and sunbathing in the backyard. He can be a little shy at first, but once he warms up, he never wants to leave your side. Bruno is a little chunky and would benefit from daily exercise and a diet to help him get to a more healthy weight. He currently weighs around 23lbs.
Bruno came to us from a local shelter after he was surrendered with his buddy Alex by their previous owner. We were told it was due to issues with the landlord. At first, we thought the boys were a bonded pair, but as we have gotten to get to know them more, they seem like they would be okay being separated. It would still be great if someone wanted to adopt both pups, but it isn't required.
Bruno is the more shy of the two boys, but he seems to be more adaptable and has settled into learning how to do normal dog things. In their previous home, the boys were kept mostly indoors and were trained to potty on pee pads, but Bruno has learned that walks can be great and has come to enjoy lounging outside. He has become a great work-from-home buddy and is happy to nap in the home office while his foster mom works. He would be a great companion for someone who is home often, such as someone who is retired or works from home.
Bruno has done well living with other dogs and seems to do best with other mellow dogs. Bruno has done well living with cats and is great about ignoring them and giving them space. Bruno previously lived with kids and could be a great addition to a family with kids older than 10 years old.
Bruno has picked up going outside to potty and has been doing well being crated when home alone. He also has done well being left free roaming for short periods. Bruno would do best with a family who can slowly acclimate him to a new environment and schedule. He is a well-mannered guy but doesn't seem to have had any formal training. He likely would do best in a home with a yard, maybe with a dog door, to make the transition to a new routine easier.
Bruno is such a special boy and he deserves his happy ever after. If you think that might be with you, submit an adoption application today!

The Yolo County SPCA is a private, not-for-profit, foster home-based animal rescue organization and does not have a shelter. All our animals awaiting adoption are in foster homes.
Our adoption fees help us cover the cost of spay/neuter surgery, microchip and registration, and rabies vaccination (if over 4 months of age at intake or spay/neuter) for all animals. Dogs are tested for heartworm, started on preventatives, and given a DAPP vaccination. Adult dogs are up to date on their vaccinations prior to adoption. Puppies will be current on the vaccinations appropriate to their age. The adopter is responsible for additional vaccinations as necessary after the adoption.
