Bruno

My story

Bruno is a one-year-old male Jindo mix with a friendly and cheerful personality. Weighing approximately 16 kg, he has the typical appearance of a Jindo, with an attractive face and an incredibly handsome appearance. As a puppy, Bruno was rescued in a severely malnourished and emaciated state after suffering from abuse and neglect. His condition was truly heartbreaking. However, with consistent love and care, he has transformed into a strong and healthy dog. Despite his difficult past, Bruno has never lost his cheerful spirit or his love for people. He enjoys human touch and often approaches people, seeking affection. He has little to no wariness of strangers, making him an open and friendly dog who quickly approaches people he has never met before. He generally gets along well with other dogs. However, he tends to play a little rough, particularly with his smaller friends. This behavior likely stems from his lack of proper socialization as a puppy. Due to his painful early life, he never had the chance to learn how to interact properly with other dogs. Bruno is now staying at a training center, where he is improving his social skills through daily interactions with various dogs. However, as he bonds deeply with his adopter and develops a strong sense of attachment, his love for people could manifest as jealousy or a protective instinct and this may lead to conflicts with other dogs. This is not because he has an aggressive nature, but rather because he loves people so much. Therefore, his adopter must provide clear and consistent training so that Bruno can continue to improve and grow into a great companion. Currently, Bruno goes outside for bathroom breaks three times a day and enjoys running freely with other dogs in the exercise yard. However, after adoption, he may have accidents due to environmental changes and adjustment periods. Once he becomes familiar with his new home, he should quickly adapt to an outdoor potty routine again. Bruno’s striking appearance is undeniable, but what truly makes him special is his warm heart and bright energy. He has overcome past hardships and grown into a strong, happy dog. Now, he is waiting for a loving adopter who will become his forever family.
