Bruce was a dog full of love for everybody. All he knew was to love, to be loved and understand love. His life used to revolve around his family and around everyone who cared about him. But unfortunately, that is not what the world had to offer to him.
On the day of the New Year, Steven Hatcher took Bruce out to take a piss. He was completely fine and healthy at the time. When they got out of home, fireworks were going off. Steven says, the noise was too loud, it was like dynamites going off.
Bruce started to panic. His breathing got very fast and he just lost himself. He got so scared, he wrapped himself around Steven’s legs. He started crying and whelping and he wouldn’t stop.
Steven got him home hurriedly. He and his wife petted Bruce and hugged him to try to console him but he couldn’t be calmed. He was crying constantly. They could feel his heart beating louder and louder and then, it just stopped.
