Hi there, I'm Brutus! I am a bubbly, loving boy who needs an active family to embrace my lively spirit. I am brimming with puppy energy, ready to take on the winter with you. I’ve been at the EHS for a while now, so I’ve had time to work on a wish list of activities: we can go sledding, build snow forts, go carolling on Candy Cane Lane, hike some trails — SQUIRREL! Oh, right. I definitely have some quirks – but they just add to my charm. I get really excited around feline friends and I can’t resist giving a good chase, so I’ll need a kitty-free home. I am still a young buck, and my mind is a sponge ready to soak everything up, so I would love to take classes with you here at the shelter to refine my manners and become an upstanding canine citizen.
