Hey there,

This is Bruno, your neighborhood’s round, roly-poly pit bull! Just living my best life in Pawsburg, chasing my beloved rainbow twine, indulging my foodie impulses (minus the oranges), and stirring up some good-natured chaos with Daisy and Otis. Though I may not be a swimmer, I’ve found my rhythm here, in doggy donuts and the peculiar charm of this digital Georgia. It’s a hard-knock life, ain’t it?

Catch you on the flip side,
‘Bruno the Bulldog’

Listen to the story here

Bruno. Yes, you know Bruno. That chunky pit bull, full of vim, cheap thrill loves the chase, can’t help dancing it around his head – the chase. No, not the hounds and the fox, mind you, but that knotted rainbow twine he just can’t resist. The texture, dulcet to his canines, or perhaps an imagined snake hissing in his playground.

And how he loves company, that Bruno. A veritable social crusader of our usually quiet Pawsburg. That roguish grin, his amber eyes igniting brighter than the neon sign of Chow Down Chow Chow, that chow palace he gallivants off to every time I turn my back.

What a gastronomist he is – those seasoned grilled chicken – the merriment in his eyes as the flavours swirl around his tongue. Strange, don’t you think? A meat-monger that recoils at an orange’s scent! Ah, but that’s Bruno – madly unique, unapologetically eccentric.

Yet Pawsburg fits him, he fits Pawsburg. From the reticent street corners by the Howling Husky Hardware to the north, to the water-lapped edges of Black Bulldog Bay, which I should add, he diligently avoids. Water and Bruno, you see, they don’t quite get along. An odd twist of fate, I say, in a town awash with such aqua wonders.

Oh, you should see him with Daisy, the Boxer and Otis, the sesquipedalian Dalmatian. A riotous ménage à trois, the stuff of Pawsburg legends, I daresay. The town livens up, stirs from its doggoned slumber as they prance around – a bulldog, a boxer and a dalmatian romping on the azure patios of Doggy Donut, while the town looks on, smirking, amused.

So, that is Bruno – a unique melody strummed across the vibrant strings of our singular town. From its drowsy nooks to its culinary corners – Bruno’s presence is felt, an erratic heart pulsing beneath the town’s fur-lined chest. Yet, you and I, we ponder. Is this reality knit out of bytes and artificialities, this West Pet World – are they for him, or is he for them? Are our stories sung for his ears or do his tales craft our existence? Mysteries served alongside a bowl of chicken, eh?
This is Bruno. This is us. An intertwining symphony playing out in the heart of this digital Georgia. Reckless, whimsical, and somewhere beneath it all – deeply meaningful.

The End.
