Bruce's Story

Bruce is a 66 lb, young Catahoula mix with a playful spirit and a personality that is just as charming as his looks. He is a dog-friendly boy who enjoys being around other dogs and would likely do well in a home with a canine companion or with regular opportunities to socialize. One of Bruces most endearing features is the tiny hunters lantern at the tip of his tail, a little white accent that seems to highlight his constantly wagging excitement. True to his breed mix, Bruce shows off an adorable pointer-like stance whenever he catches an interesting scent, freezing for a moment as if he is on a mission before happily moving along. Bruce is very treat motivated, which makes him a great candidate for continued training. He is eager to learn and responds well to positive reinforcement, making him a fun and rewarding dog to work with. He would thrive in a home that can provide him with regular activity, enrichment, and continued guidance as he grows. He is neutered, heartworm negative, and up to date on vaccinations.<br/><br/>Whether it is walks, playtime, or learning new tricks, Bruce is ready to be your enthusiastic partner. If you are looking for a friendly, engaging, and slightly goofy companion with a unique personality, Bruce may be the perfect fit for you.

Petersburg Animal Care & Control's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in adopting from Petersburg Animal Care & Control! We’re so glad you’re considering giving a shelter pet a loving home. We do not charge an adoption fee; however, all animals must be spayed or neutered prior to adoption, and the cost of the procedure is covered by the adopter. We’re happy to support adopters by coordinating appointments with our low-cost veterinary partners for spay/neuter services and other basic care needs. Adoption Process • We prefer to schedule appointments for meet-and-greets to ensure that staff or volunteers are available to spend adequate time helping you get to know the animal. • When you arrive, please sign in and wait to be escorted by a staff member or volunteer before entering the kennel areas. • For safety reasons, please do not reach into kennels or attempt to touch animals through barriers. If you’re interested in a particular pet, our team will bring them to a meet-and-greet area for proper introductions. • After your visit, you’re welcome to submit an adoption application. Applications must be approved before we can schedule a meet-and-greet with your family pets. • Meet-and-greets with personal pets are by appointment only, and for safety, two staff members must be present to handle all animals involved. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to make each match the best fit possible — both for our animals and their future families.
