Man indicted for murdering wife, leaving body on Ocean Twp. road
January 31, 2023Hello, good friends! My name is Bruce and I am a 3 year-old Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier Mix weighing 44 pounds.
I’m a very special little guy who will need a little time to get used to new people and places. When I first arrived at the shelter, I was very anxious and didn’t love a lot of touching. Now that I’m settling in with people I trust, I’m getting more and more comfortable and confident.
I’ll be looking for lots of attention when I warm up, particularly by asking for gentle belly rubs. You’ll also see my energetic and jumpy side with how much I love my toys and going for walks.
I’ll thrive with experienced dog owners and kids 12+ who will give me the time I need to become your newest, cutest family member. I could potentially go home with another resident dog too.
Interested in this unique dude? We are open for walk-ins every day, starting at noon!

I’m a little over 4 years old and a very social and fun girl, but shelter life can be stressful. I will come to you for attention but will let you know when I’ve had enough. I’ll need a quiet home and an adult-only family who know their “kitty etiquette.”
Treats, toys, and time are all good ways for us to bond. I loved to snuggle, play, and find a sunny window spot in my last home. I’ll be by your side when I want, then do my own thing. Please help me feel that happy again!
I may be able to coexist with another cat, but am just fine as an only pet. Come give this blizzard of love and fun the second chance she deserves!
