brunhilda

Name: Brunhilda
Nicknames: Brunee. Hildy.
Breed: Boxer/Bulldog mix
Weight: 80 lbs of pure kidney-bean swag
Age: 2-3 years
Doppelgänger: Peter Pan’s Shadow. She's always just a step behind her person.
Before OMD: Once a stray, now a survivor with a heart full of love, BrunHilda’s journey took her from the shelter to OMD...and she’s been making hearts melt ever since.
Energy Level: Medium-High. She can be both ends of the spectrum honestly. She can lay with you for a few hours on the couch or she'll also play for as long as you'll let her.
What we love: She is a gentle soul wrapped in a playful, Boxer-bodied package. Her mesmerizing eyes, adorable bunny-hop bounce, and sweet paw swats make her impossible not to love. She takes treats so delicately you’ll wonder if she even has teeth (she does!). She’s a mix of goofball energy and tender affection—a “bull in a china shop” who apologizes the moment she bumps the china.
What she loves: She adores her people, her fur friends, and cozy snuggles. At night, she’ll curl up close - either in her bed beside yours or right against you if you’ll let her. A reassuring pet is all she needs to know she’s safe and you are there.
Her least favorite things: She’s learning that car rides are less scary when she figures out balance.
Housebroken: She’s housebroken when on a schedule and may have a nervous accident or two when settling in, but patience and love go a long way.
Dogs: BrunHilda loves dogs (especially those who can handle her exuberant friendship!) and was a rockstar in playgroup when she was in the shelter. We think she would thrive with a canine companion.
Cats: Not sure yet.
Kids: Most likely older ones due to her size and zest for life.
Favorite song: “The Fate of Ophelia" - because she’s 100 on the land!
