Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rusty is a little male miniature Australian Shepherd who was born on 10-10-06. He was owner surrendered by a lady who said there were family problems, and she could no longer keep him. He is listed as a "special needs" dog because he is missing his left front leg. He got it caught in a fence and broke it in several places. He had surgery, and they thought it was going to be okay. However, complications developed, and it had to be amputated. He really has no special needs, but it was felt that potential adopters should be sure to know about it. He is a beautiful little fellow; he likes people; and he gets along well with other dogs.
