My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This handsome young man is around 9 to 10 months old, is Medium in size, walks on a leash, sits when asked, he appears to be a very sweet & loving young man, very active, happy, full of love & fun, needs training, playful, and is a special boy that is in need of a family to love.

Rusty's owner adopted Rusty without having a well fenced yard, they found out that herding dogs need room to run and are working dogs, they left Rusty in their house while away and Puppy Rusty did have some fun while inside the home, Rusty needs to have a job, training and room to run and work., he's a very smart boy, The owner said that Rusty was a very sweet dog that enjoyed rides in the car and does well around livestock while in their care.

Dawn gave a little test by looking in Rusty's mouth, pulling on his ears and tail, holding his paw and giving him a little kiss and hug. Rusty appeared to past the test with no problems, he just wanted to play and have fun. Like all of our shelter dogs, we suggest a well fenced yard for Rusty to play and be safe in. We feel he may make an outstanding loyal family member & loyal hard working companion. If you wish, Rusty can be tested around Dogs & Cats here at the shelter.
