Rusty's Story

HI - I'M RUSTY! I'm a 4-1/2-month-old shepherd mix in need of a foster or forever home. My mom (a white shepherd mix) was abandoned in the desert and after she was rescued, she soon gave birth to four beautiful puppies, including me! I'm a bit shy at first and will take awhile to come out of my shell, so would do best in a quiet, peaceful home with a person or people who are gentle and can take me for walks, hikes or other outings. I love napping on the couch and chilling out, too! Can you foster or adopt me? Please email for an application.
