Bruno

Bruno is a 5-year-old sweetheart who is quickly winning over everyone he meets. After recently returning to our rescue through no fault of his own (owner was widowed and unable to care for him on her own), this handsome boy is adjusting beautifully in foster care and showing us every day what an amazing companion he is.<br/><br/>Bruno is the kind of dog who just wants to be part of the family. He loves people, enjoys spending time with other dogs, and absolutely lights up when its time for a car ride. Whether hes exploring the yard, going for walks, or soaking up attention from his foster family, Bruno is happiest when hes near his humans.<br/><br/>His foster family (in Raleigh, NC) says he has been an absolute joy to have back in their home again. Hes house trained, crate trained, walks great on a leash, and settles in nicely to daily routines. Bruno has also done wonderfully with the teenagers in the home (who were 9 years old the first time Bruno was there in 2022) and other dogs in his foster home. He has not yet been around cats while in our care, so we do not currently know how he would do with them.<br/><br/>Even though Bruno was up-to-date on his vetting when he was returned, as always we took him to one of our 11 vet partners for a thorough exam. In addition to his wellness exam, Bruno had a heartworm test which also tests for other tick borne diseases and parasite screening. All negative, good news. We also had the vet administer the Lyme and Lepto vaccines. Bruno is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on his rabies and distemper parvo vaccines.<br/><br/>One thing were especially happy about is that Bruno has already started gaining back some much-needed weight since returning to rescue. When he came back to us, he was about 9 pounds under the healthy weight he was when originally adopted four years ago. (40-43 lbs). His foster family has been helping him safely regain weight with high-quality nutrition and multiple smaller meals throughout the day, and hes already looking and feeling better.<br/><br/>Even after his world was turned upside down, Bruno continues to greet life with a wagging tail and a sweet spirit. Like many dogs going through a major life change, he can occasionally feel a little anxious, but hes settling in more every day as he realizes he is safe and loved.<br/><br/>Weve also sent off a DNA test just for fun because honestly, your guess is as good as ours on his breed mix! But we feel confident he has a good bit of basset hound. We cant wait to find out in a couple weeks. <br/><br/>If youre looking for a loyal, loving companion who will happily ride shotgun on adventures and curl up nearby at the end of the day, Bruno may be your perfect match.<br/><br/>Our non binding adoption application is on our website VintageRacersForRescues.com. <br/><br/>NOTE: YOU MAY NEED TO USE THE TAB BUTTON TO GET TO THE SUBMIT BUTTON ON OUR APPLICATION.**
