Rufus's Story

Meet Rufus! 🐾 This handsome 1-year-old Belgian Malinois mix weighs about 44 lbs and is full of love, energy, and puppy charm. Rufus is a super sweet boy who absolutely loves being around his people and soaking up attention. Like most young pups, he enjoys running around, playing with toys, and showing off his playful personality. Rufus gets along well with other dogs and would love a home where he can have fun and burn off some of his puppy energy. He’s also housebroken and crate trained—such a smart boy! Rufus was found on the street with his sister in very rough shape. They were malnourished and struggling with skin issues, but thanks to lots of care and love, Rufus has made an amazing recovery. Now he’s healthy, happy, and ready to find the forever home he’s been waiting for. All Rufus needs now is a family to love him as much as he’ll love them. ❤️ If you are interested in giving this amazing dog a second chance, please fill out an application at betterlifepets.com/adoption-application.
