BRUCE is a very gentle two-year-old lurcher in the care of RSPCA Worcester & Mid-Worcestershire Branch through no fault of his own.

Geraldine Haynes, branch trustee, said: "Bruce is a truly lovely boy who is looking for his forever home. He is very nervous until he gets to know you.

"He hasn't got a bad bone is his body and is very loving and affectionate."

Bruce is neutered, chipped and vaccinated. Please ring Geraldine on 01886 822083 for more information.

For more rescued animals seeking adoption, please visit the branch website: rspcaworcester.org.uk or call Geraldine for dogs on the number above or Pamela for cats and rabbits on 01905 841354.

Holdings Lane, Broomhall, Kempsey, Worcester WR5 3FP. It is open to the public from 11am to 4pm every day, except Wednesdays.
