Alexandria Pet Of The Week: A Dog Looking For Cuddles, Exercise

ALEXANDRIA, VA — Bruno is a friendly dog with soft, floppy ears who loves to fetch and play. He's looking for lots of love from the forever family that adopts him.

Bruno is one of the many pets looking for a home from the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria's animal shelter. If a bouncy, 4-year-old dog who loves walks and exploring sounds like your kind of pet, get to the animal shelter to meet him.

Here's more information on Bruno from the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria:

"Bruno is a bouncing, furry boy who is looking for a home where he can get lots of love. He’s hoping for plenty of exercise and cuddles galore, too! He is a handsome guy sporting a white coat with brown patches and soft, floppy ears. Bruno is four years old and weighs about 38 pounds. He is a friendly guy who loves everyone he meets.

"He has lived harmoniously with children of varying ages in his previous home, and it has been reported that he has pretty good house manners," the rescue site said. "Bruno is also crate trained. He is a very fun dog who loves to play fetch and tug. He also likes to chase balls outside. Bruno likes going on walks and tends to explore the world around him with his expert nose. He will make an excellent companion for someone with an active lifestyle. Bruno has lived with other dogs in a previous home, but he would benefit from the chance to meet any potential canine siblings before he goes home. If you are looking for a loving and loyal companion who will brighten up your days, consider Bruno!"

Adoption hours at the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria (4101 Eisenhower Ave, Alexandria, VA) are noon to 7 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
