Brutus (ref 178d) is a gorgeous and very lovable tan-coloured Collie cross German Shepherd aged 5 years old.* He was brought to Derby RSPCA Centre by an RSPCA Inspector. Brutus is a friendly dog but is also rather quiet, so he needs a home with people who will understand that in spite of being a lively-looking dog he is nevertheless a thoughtful and slightly reserved creature whose idea of a good time doesn’t necessarily include romping about and being surrounded by rowdy people. He loves to be stroked and fussed and also enjoys being groomed, probably for the same reason.
He is very friendly with people and likes to play, but doesn’t at present seem to be very interested in playing with toys, perhaps because he’s never had many or perhaps just because living here in kennels doesn’t put him in a very playful frame of mind.* No doubt he’ll cheer up a lot and take more interest when he finds a new home. Brutus currently only seems to know 2 or 3 commands, but he is a highly intelligent dog and could certainly learn many more.* He would probably enjoy being trained enormously.
He would be suitable for a household where any children were aged 10+, kind, sensible and respectful towards dogs.* He will need owners who can not only provide him with plenty of walks and exercise but also with lots of games and interesting things to do, to keep his clever brain occupied.* He would need to be the only dog in the home, because he doesn’t like the company of other dogs.* He does however seem to ignore cats, but would be certain to chase after rabbits and other small furry creatures.
Handsome Brutus really is a superb dog and a very intelligent and thoughtful character too.* He is very lovable indeed and possesses a huge amount of charm.* If you can offer him the fresh air and exercise he needs along with plenty of love and understanding, he will offer you his lifelong loyalty and love.
