🐾 Meet Brufus: A Miracle in the Making
Hello there. My name is Brufus. I’m a young Pointer with a soulful gaze and a tail that, thanks to a lot of love, just won’t stop wagging. My journey to find you hasn’t been easy, but I’ve proven that I’m a fighter. I am leaving my past behind and looking straight toward a future with you and I think I’ll be ready to head home very soon!
I am currently being looked after by my wonderful “Auntie Sharon.” I’m a tall, leggy lad weighing about 28kg, and now that I’m safe, I’m putting on healthy weight and getting stronger every day.
✨ What You Need to Know About Me
I am making nothing but positive steps forward. My character has changed so much from the dog who was first rescued; my carers now describe me as a happy, goofy teenager!
-
Life of the Party: I’ve been doing brilliantly living with other dogs! We all get along famously and I really enjoy the company. Because I’m young and life is finally good, I still get very excited especially when I see my dinner coming. As long as we are fed separately, I am a perfect gentleman with my doggy friends.
-
The “Goofy” Teenager: I have truly found my personality. I’m loving, playful, and a bit of a clown. I’ve gone from a dog who couldn’t even stand up at the vets to a lad who is full of life and joy. 🤪
-
The Cat Connection: I have shown I can be very good with cats, but I do get excited! If a cat runs, my “teenager” brain wants to join the chase. However, when I first arrived I met a confident cat who wasn’t scared of me, and we get on just fine. I’d be happy with a dog-savvy house cat who can stand their ground!
-
From “Mute” to “Let’s Go!”: When I first arrived, I was so terrified I couldn’t even walk on a lead. But now? I walk lovely on the lead and get so excited when it’s time to head out for an adventure.
-
Gentle with Everyone: I have met Sharon’s grandkids and I am totally accepting and gentle with them. I’m a real “all-rounder” who just wants to be your loyal companion.
💔 A Sensitive Soul
Because of what I’ve been through, I can still be a little jumpy if someone moves too quickly toward me. I might “hit the floor” out of habit, but I am making progress every single day. I just need a family who will move at my pace and show me that life is all about treats and head scratches now.
🏡 What I Need to Thrive
I’m looking for a home that feels like a sanctuary but has a bit of “dog-savvy” guidance.
-
Knowledgeable Owners: I need a family who understands young dog behaviour and can help me manage my excitement levels, especially around meal times.
-
Company: I’ve realised I love having friends! I’d enjoy a home with another dog, ideally a submissive or older friend who can keep my goofy energy in check.
-
A Kind Environment: I’m currently being “man-tested” to make sure I’m comfortable with everyone, but so far, I’ve shown nothing but love for every person I meet.
I’ve survived the unthinkable, and now I’m ready to live the dream. Will you be the one to show me that the best is yet to come?
With a very big wag and lots of hope,
Brufus x
Important Information
Important Information Brufus is currently under the care of our partner sanctuary. He is up to date with his rabies vaccinations, chip, and blood tests, and has recently been neutered. He is excelling in a pack environment but requires separate feeding to manage his excitement. Adopters will be remotely supported by our team through his transition to ensure this special boy continues to thrive.
