Brucey's freckles aren't the only thing we love about him. He is also the sweetest boy you could meet. He walks well on leash, has shown himself to have good house manners and enjoys cuddles. Brucey has shown some guarding behaviors so needs a home with teen or older children who can respect his space and understand that he should be left alone when eating or playing with toys. Crate training would be extremely beneficial for Brucey. He has done well with other dogs but may be best as your only four-legged companion. Does Brucey sound like your future pet?
