Rupert (Bashful Buddy)'s Story

Rupert is a tender, shy boy who was found trying to make sense of the world outside a local Target store. Shelter life has left him feeling reserved, but with a gentle hand and steady patience, he’s already showing hints of the loving companion he can become. Rupert just needs someone willing to move at his pace and help him feel safe enough for his true sweetness to shine. If you’re looking to offer a quiet, reassuring home, Rupert may be the perfect match!
