Bruno

Mixed Breed ยท Male

Say hello to Bruno. ๐Ÿฅฐ You may remember him from one of our Facebook posts when he first arrived with his doggy friend Dexter. They were both incredibly emaciated and had been severely neglected by their previous owner . It breaks our hearts to think of what Bruno must have gone through, but it gives us such relief to know that he was rescued in time, before the worst happened. His journey to a full recovery will be a slow and careful process involving veterinary care, a controlled feeding regime to get them gradually back to a healthy weight, and most importantly lots of love. Although he still has quite a way to go before he's back to full health, we feel that he is now ready to find his forever home and that he will benefit greatly from being in a home environment with a loving family. ๐Ÿ˜Š Bruno will need an adult only home with someone who is willingly to support him in his recovery and provide him with a calm and safe environment to flourish in.๐Ÿ’– Bruno is still under assessment with other dogs. He cannot live with cats or small animals. If you think you can give Bruno his second chance in life, please call us any day between 11am โ€“ 2pm on . ๐Ÿ’™

About Bruno

What life with Bruno looks like

Bruno is a small adult mixed breed dog waiting at Hull Animal Welfare Trust in South Cave.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" โ€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures โ€” to let them settle.

๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡งAdopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Bruno, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Bruno?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Hull Animal Welfare Trust handles screening and the adoption contract directly โ€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Bruno on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Bruno if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad โ€” Hull Animal Welfare Trust will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra โ‚ฌ100โ€“โ‚ฌ350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Bruno already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported โ€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Bruno isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work โ€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Hull Animal Welfare Trust early rather than rehoming privately; they know Bruno and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect โ€” names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
