BRUISER

Bruiser was found in a run with a bunch of other sick and injured dogs at Miami-Dade Animal Services.  The dogs in run were waiting to be put down. 

Bruiser was easily seen among the dogs as he is a large and very good looking Rottweiler.  We were told that he was being put down due to an injury to his right wrist.  His wrist was swollen and oozing.

Permission was granted to take him out of the shelter and to be checked by a veterinarian.  Xrays were done and the original report from the vet said that Bruiser probably had osteosarcoma (bone cancer).  A biopsy was ordered to make sure and it came back negative.  He was neutered and placed on heavy dose of antibiotics.

Bruiser was adopted and he now thinks he died and went to heaven. BUT, he has NOT.  He lives in Miami Shores with his new parents and is having the best time of his life.
