Brutus Staffordshire Bull Terrier & English Bulldog Mix Woodbury, CT

Brutus is a guy's guy! He is the strong silent type and speaks volumes with his eyes. Brutus would be best as an only pet. He wants all the attention and isn't much of a fan of sharing it with other pets. He LOVES to go for car rides, and insists on riding shotgun! Brutus will sit when asked, he does like to encourage you to give him attention by placing his paw on your arm and asking for chest rubs with his chocolate eyes. Brutus would be a great companion to someone that wants to take him with them as they go about their day. He walks well on the leash and is looking for someone to take him with them! Brutus takes turns being our office dog almost daily, he has never had an accident in the office and keeps his kennel clean waiting to be walked!

Brutus has been in the shelter for 239 days, he has put on a little weight during his stay so he is a little larger than he needs to be. He is currently in south Mississippi and the hot summer months have made exercise days in the play yard hard to do. Brutus would love to find a loving and kind home in the New England area!

Brutus recently got a day out at the park, he wasn't a fan of McDonald's or the waterpark, he loved the car ride and the shady spot after a walk through the woods. Brutus is just under 3 years old.

ABOUT OUR RESCUE DOGS:
All of our sweet fur babies are being socialized daily with other dogs, adults, & most importantly, children. They are ALL in homes being cared for by people who LOVE them! All of our dogs are located in Connecticut, are spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped, dewormed, have had CT State health checks, & go home with a leash, collar, & packet of medical paperwork.

BREED IDENTIFICATION:
Please understand that many rescue dogs are mixes of multiple breeds. Petfinder allows us to choose up to two breeds per dog. While the shelters and our rescue do our best in accurately identifying breeds, breed identification is not guaranteed. If there is a certain breed that you do not want, it is very important that you share this with our rescue when applying. When adopting a puppy, breed uncertainty plays a big part in the size/look of the dog as an adult. Please know that any puppy can be a wonderful dog, regardless of preconceived notions of certain breeds, but it is very important that the adopter has the dedication and patience to raise the puppy with boundaries, consistency, structure, & love. The more effort you give towards training & time you allow for exercise, your puppy will grow to be a HUGE source of UNCONDITIONAL LOVE, TOTAL LOYALTY, HAPPINESS, COMFORT & COMPANIONSHIP!

ABOUT OUR RESCUE:
We are a small rescue run by volunteers & focused on finding the right match for both our dogs & for you. If you are interested in adopting through our rescue, you first will need to complete an adoption application & be approved as a potential adopter before meeting any of our pups. No need to be intimidated by our application as it allows us to get to know you & your lifestyle. Of course, the more you can share the better! Please also note, while a fenced yard is fantastic, it is not required by our rescue, however, it may be required for a certain dog. Once adoption applicants are approved to become potential adopters, we offer private appointments where you can meet one or several dogs at the discretion of the rescue. We offer a unique & pleasant experience focused on finding the perfect match. It is extremely important to us that everyone is treated with respect & that NO ONE IS LEFT HANGING. WE WILL GET BACK TO YOU WITHIN 4 TO 5 DAYS of application submission. If there is a dog you are eager to meet, please email us before the 4-5 days! IF YOU DO NOT HEAR FROM US AT THAT POINT, PLEASE CALL US DIRECTLY at 203-241-2351 so that we can check the status of your application and move it forward immediately. We look forward to hearing from you and helping you find your new best friend!

SOME PROVIDERS HAVE VERY STRICT POLICIES REGARDING WHICH TYPE OF DOG BREEDS ARE ALLOWED UNDER THEIR COVERAGE. STATE FARM WAS SUGGESTED TO US AS THEY DO NOT PUNISH, DROP, NOR REFUSE YOU DUE TO DOG BREED SHOULD YOU RUN INTO ISSUES WITH YOUR CURRENT PROVIDER.
