Bruiser was a neglected dog that needed a loving home. As his neighbors, he made a decision by 10 weeks or age that he wanted to live with us. It was easy to see from his owners eyes and ours. He would come to our home early in the morning and have to be picked up and dragged home by night. By 7 months of age, we asked his owners if we could adopt him and they easily gave him to us. By the time we took him to the vet, he was covered in fleas, had lyme disease and round worm. He wasn't in great shape but is certainly thriving now. Bruiser loves boating, fishing, swimming, going for runs, running with friends and more.
