Meet Bruno, a 14 month old neutered male Doberman who is as gentle as they come. He is happy go lucky and loves everyone he meets. Very laid back and willing to please, he is just a gentle giant who loves to cuddle and sneak in a smooch now and then. Bruno will need some obedience training as he is a large guy with little leash training and has the strength of an ox to pull what ever is on the end of the leash with little effort. Bruno loves to play ball, go for walks and is a great car rider. Bruno's surrendering owner claimed Bruno was a "therapy dog" for others, but did not provide any documentation to prove he had completed any type of training. Either way, Bruno might make a great therapy dog with his new adoptive owners who want to take him through formal therapy dog training as he has such a gentle temperament. Bruno is current on all vet care, micro-chipped and ready to find his happy ever after!
