Help us help you adopt more quickly!
If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail it to caintracey@hotmail.com

Rufio continues to be a loving and cuddly dog who likes to give lots of kisses. He is very high energy and will do best in a home with a backyard, and people who can walk him at least 3 -4 times a day. He will also require training, especially in leash walking, as he continues to pull when we walk him.
He has learned the words "WAIT" and "STAY" and is really a smart dog. He knows what we mean when we say it's time to go for a walk, or time to go to bed. etc.
He won't do well in a crate all day due to his need for frequent exercise and stimulation. He does understand when you ask him to go into his crate and does comply. with that command.
We had some neighbors over on July 4th and he barked incessantly at the young children, but absolutely no biting or jumping on them. He also barks when new people come into our house, but after about 3 or so minutes he calms down.
The adoption fee for this dog is $350. This fee INCLUDES spay/neuter and microchip. If the animal you are adopting is not already spayed/neutered, you will be required to sign a contract legally obligating you to have the animal altered. Please contact your HT rep to learn about exclusive low-cost spay/neuter options made available only to HT adopters!
Every adopted Homeward Trails animal comes with 30 days of free pet health insurance. We are proud to partner with the following veterinarians who offer a free first exam for your animal, exclusively for HT adopters: Caring Hands Animal Hospital, Palisades Veterinary Clinic, Sunshine Animal Hospital and Clarendon Animal Care
Finally, be sure to ask us about getting a free 30-minute phone consult with a professional dog trainer at Fur-Get Me Not within the first 30 days of adopting - just for HT adopters. Start your new dog out on the right foot with this valuable, expert advice and guidance FREE!
You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like way stations between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please check out our information about fostering by visiting http://www.homewardtrails.org/foster-a-pet/dog-and-cat-foster-program/
