Here's what the humans have to say about me:
FOSTER LOCATION: Boise, ID
Poor little Rudy has been with Fuzzy Pawz in the past but sadly was returned to us when his adoptive family found they could no longer care for him. Rudy is a 30(ish) pound 2 year old Basenji mix that is an amazing family member.
This boy is super cute, super happy and very friendly. He is house and crate trained; knows sit, shake and stay, he will even sit with just a hand gesture and a snap of your fingers!
Rudy walks well on a leash and sleep in his crate all night long (with the door open). He is not a chewer or digger, he will bark when excited but not for long and will stop if you tell him to.
He is very people friendly and really loves kids of all ages; he is even good with babies. He loves to be with people and plays great with other dogs. Rudy has never lived with a cat and his only experience are the ones that sneak into his back yard, he runs wide circles around them and barks but doesn't hurt or chase.
He is a medium energy level so a walk a day and some play in the backyard and lots of affection and he will be happy!
Rudy has a ton to offer and will fit perfectly into any home, is he the right fit for you?
Rudy is microchipped, neutered and vaccinated
