About Bruce (Pug) in Norwood

Bruce is waiting for you at Pug Rescue of New England in Norwood, MA 02062. MEET BRUCE! Big boy Bruce is ready to find that special someone who will help him continue to slim down to a healthy weight and explore ways to support him through his journey with Degenerative Myelopathy. Weighing in at 28.8 lbs when he arrived, Bruce has started to trim down already! Continuing this fitness journey will go a long way towards preserving Brucey's mobility. We are not saying it will be easy, as Bruce is very food motivated and a bit protective of his vittles, but he loves his walks! What does he love most after a walk? Cuddles! Bruce loves to snuggle and is super affectionate. Bruce has made great strides already in his foster home since starting his diet and exercise regime and taking a joint supplement. Soon he will be at fighting weight and ready to take on all that his new rescue life has to offer! Bruce is a bit of a ham, and as you can see by his handsome mug that it will not be a challenge to pay him some attention. In fact, you will not have a choice as he demands pats and skritches. He likes meeting new people and dogs but especially loves having someone to call his own. Given his druthers, he'd be by your side all day! He also gets along well with other dogs. He likes to be BMOC (big man on campus) and can be a little pushy, but it is all in good fun. He does do some resource guarding, so feeding separately will be the safest approach if you have other pets, and no little hands trying to mess with his dinner. He has lived with children in the past and does enjoy their playful energy. Some of Bruces favorite things are carrots, blueberries and playing with toys. A quirky thing he does that has his foster mom in stiches every time, is chasing her around the house for attention. Did we mention he's a bit of a ham? He knows the sit command, but with a handful of blueberries we think he'd be a quick study for learning even more tricks. Bruce is crate trained, h
