Rufus's Story

*NOTICE - BREED EXPERIENCE STRONGLY PREFERED*<br/>Rufus will thrive in a home that truly understands the Eskie way - someone patient, consistent, and appreciative of his intelligence, sensitivity, and spirited personality. Ideal adopters are those with prior American Eskimo experience. If you're not already familiar with the breed, we strongly encourage doing some research to ensure Rufus' needs and quirks are a great match for your home. Rufus would do best as the only pet in an adult-only home.<br/><br/>Do you appreciate a dog with opinions - and the confidence to share them? Meet RUFUS!<br/><br/>With his snowy white coat, expressive eyes, and a personality as big as his fluff, Rufus is impossible not to notice. This 4-year-old Eskimo is the kind of dog who seems to glow - equal parts charm, smarts, and mischief wrapped up in one irresistibly fuzzy package. Beneath all that fluff is a heart full of loyalty and love, just waiting for the right person to see him for who he truly is!<br/><br/>As anyone familiar with the breed knows, American Eskimos are smart, opinionated, and sensitive. Rufus fits the bill perfectly! He's an incredibly loving dog once he trusts you, but in typical Eskimo fashion, he'll politely let you know when he's "over it." It's all part of his big personality, and it's exactly what makes him so endearing.<br/><br/>Rufus is neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and given a flea and tick preventative as well as a heartworm preventive.<br/><br/>If you're ready to open your home to a dog with beauty, brains, and a one-of-a-kind personality, this fluffy charmer is ready to show you just how wonderful life can be with an Eskie by your side. Please fill out an adoption application on our website - for any additional information or questions, please contact the shelter at wausharacoanimalshelter@gmail.com or (920) 279-9795.
