BRUCE - CANE CORSO MASTIFF / AMERICAN BULLDOG / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Cane Corso Mastiff / American Bulldog / Mixed (short coat). Meet, Bruce Almighty From severely emaciated to full of love — Brucey’s comeback story is incredible. Now this sweet 7-month-old Cane Corso mix just needs his forever family. At just 7 months old, Brucey the Cane Corso mix has already overcome a tough start. Brucey spent the first six months of his life being neglected and arrived in rescue extremely emaciated, but you would never know it from the loving, gentle boy he is today. He’s now healthy, happy, and currently weighs just under 40 lbs. Because of his early malnourishment, we don’t expect him to reach the typical giant Cane Corso size — which just means more manageable cuddles. Brucey is a total love bug who believes the best place to be is leaning against his people for affection. He’s currently living with six other dogs and three cats, and he thinks everyone is a friend. His play style is classic goofy puppy — bouncy, wiggly, and always ready for a game — so he’d love a home with another playful dog. Brucey is also learning his manners! He knows sit and wait, walks nicely on leash, and is almost fully house trained. At night he sleeps quietly in his crate from 10 PM to 7:30 AM like a champ. He’s a medium-energy puppy who enjoys chew toys, stuffies, and playtime… but his favourite activity is definitely snuggling up with his people. Because he’s still a strong, food-motivated puppy, a home with dog-savvy kids would be best. Brucey has come such a long way from the skinny, neglected pup he once was. Now he just needs a family who will love him for the rest of his life.
