My story

Rufus is a pit mix.He is a sweet baby boy. LOVES belly rubs and to play. He has a lot of energy and loves to give kisses. He is good with dogs, cats, and kids. .. I have all in my home currently. We found Rufus in January when he was just a baby… too younge to be away from his mom. It was him and 3 of his siblings. They were dropped off in front of someone’s home. The other 3 went with someone else and we picked up this pretty boy. I’m guessing he was born late November or early December. We had him dewormed and all his puppy shots in February but haven’t had any other shots. We got flea treatments done but it’s about time for all my animals again. He is about 80% potty trained. If gone too long he will go inside or at night time. But he always goes by the front door. He doesn’t chew too much but if left alone then he will. Not crate trained. I’ve tried but I got noise complaints from his whining so I use a muzzle when I leave the house. I just didn’t realize how much work a puppy is🥺

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Rufus, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
