I’m working on it, but I’ll need someone who understands and reassures me.<br/>🚫 Not a fan of crates. My foster gates me in the kitchen when they leave and I do just fine!<br/><br/>My Favorite Things:<br/>❄️ Being outside — especially in the snow.<br/>☀️ Sunshine adventures! I can’t wait for warm weather hikes, long walks, and exploring with you.<br/>👣 Following my humans everywhere because I’m curious and I love being by your side.<br/>🤗 Snuggles. So many snuggles.<br/><br/>My Promise to You:<br/>I’ll give you loyalty, laughter, warmth, outdoor adventures, and the kind of love that makes you feel like the most important person in the world.<br/>I’ve got a heart of gold — I just need the right family to share it with.<br/><br/>So…<br/>Can you show me what forever really means?<br/>Apply now to bring home this handsome, stunning boy who will never take you for granted.<br/><br/>🧡 Love, Rusty<br/><br/>If interested in Rusty, please apply online: ADOPTION APPLICATION or email us at Info.FetchingHeartsRescue@gmail.com.<br/><br/>Unless otherwise indicated, all dogs adopted through Fetching Hearts have received the following before being available for adoption:<br/><br/>Thorough veterinary examination.<br/>All routine annual vaccinations, including<br/>Rabies, DHLPP<br/>Bordetella (Kennel Cough)<br/>Heartworm Test<br/>Fecal Test, Deworming<br/>Microchip<br/>Flea and Tick Prevention<br/>Heartworm Prevention.<br/>Spay/Neuter<br/>All dogs are quarantined for two weeks outside of the shelter (puppies four weeks) to ensure they don't break with disease.<br/><br/>VETTING NOTE: Fetching Hearts Rescue completely vets our dogs thoroughly to the best of our knowledge based on communication with our Southern Vets.
