Description:
Get Bruce out of the pound!  FOSTER HOME NEEDED!

This big guy was picked up as a stray, and never claimed by owners.  Bruce is estimated to be about 3 years old, and weighs 115 pounds.  When he arrived in impound, he was dirty and matted, and had a severe ear infection.  His ear has been treated, and he has been cleaned up some (try getting him into a tub!!!).

Bruce is a playful and exuberant boy.  He is affectionate with the kennel staff and loves attention.  He greets new people in a friendly manner with the occasional sloppy kiss.  He loves having his rump scratched and will position himself against you at the perfect angle for you to do so.  He's a ladies man and is also very fond of the male kennel staff.  He will actually try and sit in your lap if you're down on the floor giving him attention.  He's sometimes unaware of his size and can be a handful for a smaller person or someone without large breed experience.  He doesn't appear to have had much training although he will sit nicely for treats.  His leash manners are poor at best and he would benefit greatly from obedience training.  He is sometimes stubborn and would do well with a consistent handler.  He does not get upset when other dogs approach his kennel and approaches other dogs on leash in a friendly/playful manner.  Although we suspect that he may have been an outside dog he keeps his kennel clean with 3 trips a day to an outdoor run.  He is not food or toy aggressive.

Can anyone help this BIG furry bundle of love?
