12/02/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: I don’t think I’ve EVER seen a dog more excited to go for a walk. The second I got close to Brutus’ cage, his little tail was banging all over the place so hard, it sounded like a hailstorm was coming down outside! This guy was so happy to see a friendly face that he just couldn’t contain himself. Brutus pulls a little bit on his leash (and who can blame him–this is a guy with a zest for exploration!) but is very responsive to his handler. At 5 years old, Brutus’ wild puppy days are behind him, but he has plenty of love and energy for a new family. Please come and see him at the Brooklyn ACC today!
