Rufus was found wandering alone with a choke chain and a leash, yet his owners were never found. Sadly, he didn't have any identification or a microchip.He's been cared for his whole life and we couldn't let him die alone in the shelter: we pulled him on his last day hoping his owners would find him first. Rufus is a little nervous around other dogs until he is properly introduced, which is not uncommon for dogs that were on the streets alone. If you're looking for a nice middle-aged boy who loves chasing balls, come and meet Rufus! He looks to be potty trained, walks great on a leash, loves people and knows his basic commands.
The minimum adoption donation for adults is $300 and the adoption donation for puppies is $400 - $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
