Dog: Bruski is an eight year old Australian Shepherd, who actually lives in Brookline, but his human’s worked in J.P. on Centre Street for five years. And because I had the enormous pleasure of meeting Bruski last weekend, at a J.P. party, and because I have blogger’s prerogative, he’s in, under the category of “sometimes we let the neighbors in.”

Human: Bruski lives with Jon, Laurie, Brooke, and Aubrey.

Does your dog have any funny quirks, odd behaviors, or defining characteristics?

Will play fetch until YOU can’t throw anymore. They need to create an electronic Chuck It! Jumps to catch frisbees.

What do you love most about your dog?

The most amazing temperament.

Your dog’s favorite outdoor spots in J.P.?

Anything else you’d like to share about your dog?

I would say he is pretty close to the perfect dog…if you can get past having a dog without a tail. Smart, loyal, easy to train, great with children, loves people, good with other dogs. If you’re looking for a great breed, check out an Australian Shepherd!
