All of our dogs are in foster homes and not in one single kennel location.  Adoption events is the best way to meet several of our dogs at once. Bruce is a three year old Malinois on the larger side. He was pulled from a local shelter, where he was a frequent visitor. He had been picked up roaming the streets on numerous occasions when his owners would not keep him contained. Bruce is a friendly guy whose time on the streets has sharpened his survival skills, making him an expert garbage can tipper, and sleek counter surfer. He is not one to let a decent meal go to waste. He walks fairly well on leash, comes when he’s called, and readily enjoys pets and affection. He is neutral with other dogs, and will play for a bit when invited. He enjoys car rides, hanging out with his person, and a good game of tug.Bruce is not a huge fan of the crate, and when in one for more than a couple hours, tries to break out. He enjoys being outside, and could be considered for a mostly outside home. He seems comfortable inside, but after an hour or so, he’s ready to go out.Unknown how he is with cats, smaller dogs or other small critters.Level 2 Understanding Dog Levels Please be sure you understand what a dog of this Level requires. Go to our home page for an explanation of the Dog Rating Levels. Additional Adoption Information For more information and to see when this dog will be attending an Adoption Day, please see our Dogs page on our main website. (Adoption Process) We operate within a reasonable driving distance from the Greater Sacramento area, the Central Valley down to Merced, and Lake Tahoe. A reasonable driving distance is determined by where one of our volunteers is willing to drive within our areas of service. That means we don't adopt out of our area, to Southern California, or out of state. Puppy Requirements We have special Requirements for Adopting a Puppy and a separate Puppy Questionnaire that must be completed on puppies. Please see our Requirements for Adopting a Puppy or email us at info@gcgsr.org for more information. Thank you for visiting!
