He was rehomed by the boxer rescue in January 2018, but his owners now say they can no longer look after him due to work commitments.

Bruno, who is currently based in Chesterfield, is being treated by Charlotte Hanson, an animal doctor at Ravenshead.

Fiona Leatherland fostering co-ordinator at Notts and Yorkshire Boxer Rescue said: "Charlotte believes it won’t be long before his second eye has to be removed so we are anxious to find him a forever home whilst he still has a little sight."

The rescue are looking for a long-term foster home for him, which means they will contribute to his care costs and pay for his operation, when it’s needed.

Fiona added: "Bruno needs a home where someone is around for a lot of the time.

"He could live with another gentle dog but is used to being the only dog.

"Ideally, his home would have a safe, secure garden.

"He needs someone with patience who can help him find his way around and keep him safe.

"He could live with teenagers but no young children."
