Rusty Vizsla & Rhodesian Ridgeback Mix Vinita, OK

Hey, I'm Rusty. I'm one of the OG's of this place. I've been here 223 days. That's 223 days of not chasing squirrels, of not running freely, 223 days of no cuddles with my own humans. 223 days of waiting. In that time, not one person has asked to see me. Not one. Why? I've seen others here start to act funny. It has me worried. I don't wanna catch what the humans call "kennel stress" That sounds pretty bad.
I think I'm a good boy. I'm tall and the humans say I'm regal. I'm also really smart!! I figured out how to lift of the handle on my kennel outside! I was pretty proud of myself. The humans didn't think it was something to be proud of. So they put some kind of clip on it. Give me time. I'll figure it out! I love to play! My big JollyBall is my favorite toy in the world! I chew on it because it gives me comfort. I was made for the outdoors! I think that's because I get so bored when I'm in the house, that I can't help but be naughty. But that's not my fault. I need a job. And I think I would be good at just about any job. You don't even have to pay me!! Just throw ball and I'll be a happy boy! Please someone pick me!! It's my turn!
