Bruce Willis

My story

Meet Bruce Willis – not the action star, but just as charming (and way better at cuddles). This Lab/Border Collie mix is a total gem. Bruce is sweet, easygoing, playful, and incredibly gentle with kids. He’s the kind of dog who just gets it — no accidents in the house, no chewing on toys that aren’t his, and no drama. He loves other dogs and plays great with his foster sisters, though he may be a little too curious about very tiny dogs (he’s suspicious they might be cats in disguise). Bruce is crate-trained, goes in willingly at bedtime, and doesn’t bark or cry. He doesn’t jump fences, comes when called, and is happy to lounge or snuggle once he’s had his backyard time. His absolute favorite thing? Chasing squirrels and birds out of the yard — a task he takes very seriously (your personal backyard security guard). He’s a quick learner and eager to please. In just a few days, he mastered “sit and stay” at the door with no treats required — just praise. He pulls a little on leash at first, but his foster hasn’t walked him regularly since he has access to a fenced yard. That said, he’s so people-oriented he’s unlikely to run if the leash slips. Bruce is quiet, affectionate without being clingy, and adjusts beautifully to home life — especially one that offers a little companionship. He’s done well with children but may get overstimulated by playground activity (he’d love for everyone to just stop moving so he can herd them into place). He’s highly redirectable, has no food aggression, and is crate-comfortable — but a long day alone in a crate might not be ideal for him long-term. Bruce’s dream home would include a fenced yard, a playful dog buddy, and people who are home often — whether retired, work-from-home, or just able to spend more of their time with him. He’s the easiest foster his current family has ever had, and they’d keep him in a heartbeat if they could. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-maintenance companion with a big heart and a playful streak, Bruce Willis is your guy.
