Maltipoo, 8 1/2 Pounds
Hi All! I’m Bruiser. I truly believe that everyone loves me! There’s nothing I enjoy more than meeting and greeting new people, giving kisses, cuddling and snuggling with them!
Ironically, I was named Bruiser when I was just a wee, 2 lb pup, but I prove time and time again, that my name is perfect for me. Despite my size, I never let anything stop me. I’m a brave boy, willing to try and do anything…especially if treats are involved! If we’re playing, I love to barrel into my siblings, using all my weight. I have no problems telling dogs of any size that I’m the Boss! Without a doubt, I’m a big dog in a little dog’s body!!
In my youth, I became a famous dock diver! This entailed running and jumping off a two-foot-high dock into a pool of water. Your score is measured by how far you jump and where the base of your tail hits the water…my personal best was 8 feet 6 inches! I would jump, go under water, come back up, grab my ball and then swim out, ready to do it again…the best part was that during the entire process my tail would never stop wagging!
I have lots of funny and cute routines! Every morning I wait outside the bedroom door for Mommy to wake up, so I can give her a hug. After our hug, I immediately run for the cozy cave and burrow in until breakfast time. When my travel harness gets put on, I put it in my mouth and prance off to the family room, holding it in between my teeth the entire time. Once in the family room, I take a moment of silence to pray for safe travels, and then I’m ready to load up! I insist on only getting in the car from the driver’s side…even though I sit on the passenger side.
I’m a professional model and have flashed my smile during many photo shoots! I’ve even done a professional video shoot for a national commercial. I had the best time ever! I got to partner with a beautiful actress and do my most favorite thing in the world…give lots and lots of kisses! It could not have been a more perfect role for me!
When Mommy gets out the treats, I’m game for anything! If she isn’t quick enough to tell me what she wants, I’ll just start waving at her, because I’m sure that’s the trick she wants me to do. After all, she says I have the best Wave EVER!
My nickname is #SuperB, because there’s nothing I can’t do! I’m a dock diver, a trick dog, a professional model, a skateboarder, a gymnast, a barn hunter, a nose worker, an obedience master, a good kisser, a great little brother, the best big brother, a best friend and without a doubt, the glue that holds our pack together!! And, I do it all with a happy, upbeat, positive attitude!
