My story

Meet Rusty! This handsome 4-year-old sweetheart is the total package — smart, loving, playful, and perfectly snuggly. Rusty is a gentle, go-with-the-flow kind of guy who’s just as happy chasing a ball as he is curling up on the couch for a nap. He’s currently in a foster home with three other dogs (his besties!) and gets along great with everyone he meets. Rusty is a bit of a follower, happy to go along with whatever the pack is doing — whether it’s walk time, playtime, or chill time. Rusty walks nicely on a leash, flashes big smiles to the neighbors, and greets guests with kisses and tail wags. He’s also kennel and house trained, rides great in the car (windows down, ears flapping!), and is a total pro at fetch and cuddling. Dog-friendly Couch potato certified Loves car rides Crate trained Plays gently Just an all-around good boy Rusty is ready to bring love, laughs, and loyalty into his forever home — is it yours? Apply today -- Rusty is in a great foster home in Texas -- and will be able to come up with our transport when he has a family waiting for him in New England *Please note: We're an all-volunteer organization, and incomplete applications cannot be processed.* If you're interested in adopting a GBP rescue PAL, please submit an application through the link below.
