Rufus's Story

Rufus ( male ) <br/><br/>Rufus is extremely goofy. He is always on the go, running around playing with toys, or laying down playing with toys lol. <br/><br/>He loves to wrestle with his brother, and is VERY food motivated! <br/><br/>I haven't seen any food aggression with him, he shares a gravity feeder with no problems! <br/><br/>He does need a little leash work, but he walks for you lol, he just needs direction. <br/><br/>He is dog friendly, but prefers super friendly males, or females! He doesn't like the grumpy boys lol. He is such a sweet, goofy, and fun pup!

NovaStar Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
If you are interested in any one of our Stars, please fill out an adoption application on our website, and we can answer any questions you may have. All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on shots, dewormed, and started on preventatives (flea/tick and heart worm) at time of adoption. Our adoption fees are $250 for puppies under the age of 12 months, and $200 for most of our adult dogs. Some of our adult dogs have their adoption fees waived so please ask. We also offer a senior citizen discount on adult dogs. Out of state transport is available to some areas for an additional cost. The first step is to fill out our application. We will check your personal references and vet references, and then contact you to set up a home visit. Once all requirements are met, a meet and greet with your potential new family member can be set up.
