Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rufus is a very sweet, loyal, fun, playful and well-trained, five-year-old, 50-pound, male Cattle Dog looking for a loving guardian.
Rufus is living in a foster home where he has proved wonderfully well-behaved with dogs of all shapes, sizes and ages. He just loves other dogs.
Rufus is well-trained; he knows the commands sit, paw, other paw, and can catch a treat mid-air. He loves to play ball, and carry around and play with his stuffy squeaky toys. He loves people too and lets his foster dad brush his teeth with chicken toothpaste. He’s great on leash and also good in the car.
Rufus is very healthy, neutered, up-to-date on vaccines and heartworm-tested. To meet and possibly adopt him, please contact me directly at sheri@petraits.com or 773-777-2891. His adoption fee of $150 benefits rescued dogs. He is being fostered on the north side of Chicago.
