Rufus's Story

Rufus wandered in as a stray from the McNeal area, hoping someone might be looking for him. Sadly, no one came, but that just means his true forever family is still out there.<br/><br/>This big, gentle two-year-old weighs in around 80 pounds, but don’t let his size fool you—Rufus is as soft-hearted as they come. We’re not quite sure what he’s mixed with, but whatever it is, it blessed him with great manners and an easygoing personality.<br/><br/>Rufus is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and appears to be house trained. He’s an absolute dream on leash and a calm, polite passenger in the car. He also seems to enjoy the company of other dogs, but a meet and greet will be required to make sure it’s a good match. We’re not certain how he feels about cats.<br/><br/>Rufus would thrive with an active family who wants a loyal companion to join them on every adventure, whether that’s out exploring or curled up together on the couch. He’s ready to be someone’s best friend—he just needs the chance to prove it.
