About Brogan
Brigadier ‘Brogan’-senior rank & looking for his Army pension ©
A little bit about me in my own words Yes I consider myself a high ranking member of the British forces despite abandoned in Europe (enemy territory) & loosing the battle on a daily basis with people who neglected & mistreated me. However I still have a stiff upper lip & the final victory will be mine- in the shape of a good home where I can retire with my new family.
I was held captive for most of my existence & then abandoned. Eventually I was captured on the 15.4.26 (a government shelter) & have spent my days getting fitter & socialising with my fellow soldiers. Whilst I’m a courageous gent I also went through a period of confusion and shyness while I was getting used to where I was. It didn’t take long to regard this as the closest I’ve ever come to to a ‘home’ & being free of my abuser allowed me to blossom. I was such a matted mess before & a shave at the barber’s has done me proud. It’s a tragedy that I could after I’ve come so far, be made homeless again at my vulnerable age. You can talk to the welfare to u destined more about this.
I look to have a little bit of Russian terrier in me and I’m not so far removed from a labradoodle vibe. Alls I know is that the girls call me handsome and my comrades respect me. I’m great with other dogs, love a stroke & have so much to offer.
I’m a distinguished gentleman & Leesa says I’m also described as a ‘Golden oldie’. I heard her telling someone that we do not need the day to day commitment of some younger dogs. If you’re at work for a few hours we will curl up and wait for you to come home (apparently). If you’re there all day their company is invaluable, like the hearth in the house.
I’ve got one of those faces that you can’t resist like bungle from Sesame Street. If you want to learn more about the old timers that break the chains has dedicated the last decade to homing please ask away.
