Micki, thank you so much for speaking up and giving Bruce a chance at a better life! He is beautiful! But seeing his sores infuriates me! Hoping that this very special, deserving boy finds his forever home very soon!

Bruce and I went to the vet today and got shots. He's h/w neg and his fecal was neg, so we're in good shape. He's really great with Chester and Granny Dog LOVES him! She wants to cuddle up to him in the pen.

This evening when it cools off (and Michael gets home from work), we're going to work some more with him and the little puppers and see how things go. If only Chester and Millie were more friendly and less ferocious! He's good and happy where he's at now, but I wish I could get him out of the heat. I guess he's used to it though. I've jimmy rigged a tarp for him for shade, at least.

Aly is working on a spot for him at her shelter. If she can adopt out one of the pits they have there, she can take Bruce. Keep your fingers crossed and say a little prayer that she has some luck on that end.

Hi! He's beautiful, but I don't think he's full pitty! He looks like he's got some lab or something in him, too? Who's he registered with? Most of the "pitty registeries" are bunk....

He's gorgeous!

Sounds like things are going well...good vet report...getting along with Chester, and a buddy for Granny! Fingers crossed things will keep going your way

Bruce is handsome--I just love how he looks at the camera!!!
"Billy Bob" and "Bubba Joe" need a little road rash of their own--idiots
Thank you for being Bruce's guardian angel Micki--I'm sure he loves you for it. Cracks me up that you say Granny loves him--I can just see the two of them together--what an odd couple!!

So glad the vet visit went well--he's healthy despite the poor care he recieved-good for him.

I'll be saying prayers for him to get a good home, or at least a spot to wait until a good home comes around!!

That's exactly what Dr. Hemple said too! She thinks he a lab/pit mix. I wondered too, since his head is SO small. I thought maybe it was just bad breeding (surprise!), especially since he has such a bad overbite.

I don't even know whom he's supposedly registered with. "Billy Bob" is supposed to bring me his papers this week, but I doubt he will. Loser.

I gave him a bath and now he smells like something alive instead of something dead. And he really liked the water. We are going tonight to get a doghouse and a wading pool. It's really hot and I think he'd get in the pool to cool off, since he keeps putting his butt, then his chin in his water bowl! Goofy!

And, guys, I'm no angel. I didn't do anything that any single one of you wouldn't have done, had you been in my shoes.

Ah ha! I know my pittys! LOL Well, if he's part lab I don't doubt for a second that he'll spend lots of time in the pool!

IMHO I think lab/pitty mixes are the best dogs ever.

yay for rescuing bruce!

oooo lab/pitty mix!! My Max is a lab/pitty/rottie mix... i'm sure the lab in him will make him super friendly with ppl & pets, & the pitty will give him plenty of fun energy..

I wish I was near by, I'd take him in.
