Rufus
Age: 3 Sex: Male Colors: Black/Rust Ears/Tail: Natural/docked Location: Jonesborough, TN Adoption Fee: $350 🐾 Meet Rufus! 🐾 Gets Along with:
Housebroken? yes, but did mark once during initial intake Crate Trained? only use hard side crates for him, a regular wire crate cannot hold this boy! Walks? Tendency to pull in normal collars/harnesses. Walking with prong collars is decent. Travel Well? Decent, but did try to jump out of a truck window once (this was when he was pulled from the initial shelter) Know any commands? Know sit & come. Working on heel, no and other basics. Problem areas? He is a climber! Will require a yard with a tall fence. Has destroyed his share of blankets and dog beds. Personality:
When interviewed the foster mom started laughing and said he reminds her of Stifler from the movie American Pie. A stereotypical “dog version” of a loveable dumb jock! He has been known to climb in the shower with some of the foster family. She thinks that due to his love of water he probably has potential to be trained to compete in dog diving and fetch competitions. 🐶❤️ #VSDRRufus24 To learn more about each dog, click on their “dog tags” ( # VSDR NAME) and pull up all the posts about them, or check out their personal album in our facebook pictures! *Since we are 100% volunteer based, we ask for a $25 application fee to determine if the adopter is seriously interested in going through with an adoption.
