Remarkable Rudy

Hi, my name is Rudy.<br/><br/>I’m a 1-year-old Mini Aussie, and I’ve been told I’m a little different. My coat isn’t the kind people usually stop and point at, and sometimes I feel like I get passed over because of it. I don’t really understand why—because underneath my fur, I’m just a sweet, hopeful boy who wants what every dog wants: to belong.<br/><br/>I’m gentle and soft-hearted, and I like to take my time getting to know new people. Once I trust you, though, my whole world opens up. I love playing ball, walking nicely on a leash, and just being near someone calm and kind. Loud noises and fast movements can make me nervous, so I do best in a peaceful home where things move a little slower and introductions are thoughtful.<br/><br/>Because I’m still learning about the big wide world, I need someone who understands that I’m a work in progress. I’m a bit of a flight risk, so a securely fenced yard and a solid safety plan are important for me. A predictable routine and, ideally, a friendly dog companion would help me feel safe and confident as I continue to grow.<br/><br/>I may not have the coat color everyone is looking for—but I promise, if you look a little closer, you’ll see a loyal heart, a sensitive soul, and a boy who will love you deeply once he knows he’s finally chosen. I’m ready when you are. <br/>______________<br/>Rudy is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, crate trained, house trained, walks great on a leash, rides great in a car. He LOVES other dogs, is completely respectful of cats and has great house manners.<br/><br/>If you'd like to be considered for this amazing boy, please submit an application at www.pacificanimalsociety.org Or access our application directly here: https://forms.gle/S2gX7nNx3ZNd6Z3C6 <br/><br/>Note: These little Aussies are adorable, brilliant, and braver than they should be — but they’re also a work in progress. They grew up together in a quiet kennel environment, so the big wide world is still a lot to process. Loud noises, fast movements, and new people (especially men and kids) can be intimidating. They walk beautifully on leash but need time, patience, and a calm routine to feel secure. A predictable home life and a well-matched canine friend will help them shine. Because they are flight risks, adopters must have a solid plan to prevent escapes and help them safely explore the world at their own pace.
