Hi everyone, my name is Bruno and it is so wonderful to meet you! I am a young dog here at AWS who can be described as an outdoor enthusiast and adventurer. With Spring finally here and the temperatures getting warmer, my friends at AWS thought it would be fun for you to join me on a walk for this week’s Pet of the Week!
Enjoying the Exercise
The main reason I love being outside and going for walks is to get some quality exercise! I’m an active guy who likes to get my energy out with nice long trips where I can explore new places with my people. Different walks can lead to new challenges as well. From uphill hikes, different terrains or walks by the water (that could lead to swimming 👀) there’s all sorts of ways to have a nice exercise that tires me out on a walk.
Exploring New Places
As I mentioned before, getting to explore new places with my people is a lot of fun when going on walks! New sights, sounds and smells are all enriching for me whether it’s going on a new trail or exploring a different sidewalk downtown. New places also come with new people to meet. I’m a pretty friendly guy, so I don’t mind meeting new people on adventures. I’m so excited to find all sorts of new places to explore with my new family!


Working My Nose on Walks
While exercising and exploring are great, using my nose to sniff all of the new smells is a mental workout! There’s so much I can learn on a walk from using my nose and it’s also a lot of fun. Making a walk into a sniffing adventure is very satisfying, especially when we have time and space to take in all of the smells on a new adventure. I love putting my nose to work while exploring!
Creating a Bond
Sharing time with my people on a walk is a great way to create a special bond between us. Having one-on-one time allows us to build our emotional connection and enjoy each other’s company while having fun on an adventure! I love to learn so teaching me new things while exploring can be a great time for both of us. Creating a routine together with a nice walk each day strengthens our bond for each other!
Your New Walking Partner
Now that you know why walking is so enjoyable for me, how does making me your new walking partner sound? Outside of walks I’ve been described as a charming and friendly guy who loves attention. I’m known for good snuggles and lots of fun! So if you or someone you know is interested in a lovable new walking buddy, then come by the Adoption Center or call (207) 985-3244.
