About Rusty:
Hi! My name is Rusty. I'm a sweet southern gentleman - hailing from the Palmetto State - aka South Carolina!
I'm a mixed breed pup with a sweet personality, ready to give you all my love and loyalty. At 40 lbs., I'm the perfect size, don't you think? Here is what my foster mom has learned about me so far:
- I’m potty trained and know to do my business outside
- I’m quiet in my crate - during the night AND if you need to run errands during the day!
- I absolutely LOVE the couch and soft blankets
- I love treats - especially little pieces of cheese that my foster mom has been spoiling me with
- I can be shy at first but I'm really starting to open up with my foster family as I feel more comfortable!
- My foster mom describes me as a gentle soul
- I am extremely affectionate and love being held close and getting lots of pets
I’m looking for my forever family! Is that with you? If so, please hit the apply button and let’s get our family started.
All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.
This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
