05/23/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Mr. Blue Eyes is more like it. Wowza, is this dog stunning to look at! But that can’t compare to the dearness of his company. He keeps his kennel so neat, even though he waits a long time to be walked, and appears to be house trained…he walks so nicely on a leash, and he is SOOOO SWEEETTT!!!! So tooth-achingly sweet we’re thinking a monster tooth ache must be a nice thing, because how could it be anything but wonderful to be in the presence of this guy? He wags his tail like crazy, takes treats like an angel, and after hugging and kissing and showing his gratitude to his walker, dearly lies down on the grass to enjoy the day. We would love Bruce Lee to have a summer full of walks in the park, only not by the volunteers but by his new, forever family. Please, come meet this super star! Another volunteer writes: Sweet…gentle…gorgeous…a good boy…even before I’d met Bruce Lee I’d heard his praises being sung to the skies, and I’m pleased to report he’s doing a fine job of living up to his rep! Just as handsome and athletic as his famous namesake, Bruce’s smooth good looks draw admirers from all walks of life, and a stroll down the street feels like a turn on the red carpet with this celebrity by your side. Bruce has his silly moments too, and back in the yard he lets loose with a plush toy, playing fetch and tug and then simply shaking the dickens out of it with a mischievous twinkle in his pretty eyes. He loves other dogs just a much as he does people, is unfailingly polite and friendly in playgroup and earned high praise in his behavior evaluation too, setting himself up nicely for adoption into almost any kind of family. To quote the more famous Mr. Lee, ‘If you love life don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of’. So what are you waiting for? Hurry in to the Manhattan Care Center and scoop up your very own blue-eyed Bruce today!
