About Brutus
Meet Brutus, a large, 1-year-7-month-old American Staffy mix with a heart as big as his size! Brutus has lived with other dogs in the past and has done well when meeting new dogs at the shelter. Pending a successful meet and greet, he would be suitable to live with another dog.
Brutus is good with kids and friendly when meeting new people, easily winning hearts wherever he goes. He’s a big fan of fetch and enjoys a fun game, but he’s also happy to kick back and watch TV with his family. Despite his love for lounging, Brutus is a bit overweight, so he could use some extra exercise and portion control to get back to a healthier weight.
In his previous home, Brutus was left alone for more than 10 hours a day, so he’s accustomed to long periods alone, making him well-suited for full-time workers. He’s a loving and loyal companion who just wants to be part of a family again. If you’re looking for a big, gentle boy with lots of love to give, Brutus is your guy!

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
