REUBEN IS A GORGEOUS, 2 YEAR OLD, AUSTRALIAN SHEPHERD MIX, WE'RE NOT SURE WHAT OTHER BREED REUBEN IS A COMBINATION OF ALL WE KNOW IS THERE SHOULD BE MORE OF THEM, THIS PUP IS BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL!! WHEN YOU FIRST SEE REUBEN HE WILL STOP YOU IN YOUR TRACKS HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. HIS COAT IS JUST STRIKING, A MYRIAD OF GORGEOUS COLORS, HIGH GLOSS BLACK, WARM APRICOT AND SOFT FAWN HIGHLIGHTS, THIS PUP'S MARKINGS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL IT LOOKS LIKE HE WAS HAND PAINTED. YOU WILL WANT TO PAT AND RUB REUBEN THE MINUTE YOU SEE HIM AND AS MUCH AS THIS "LOVE ME" GENTLE PUP ADORES ATTENTION AND AFFECTION IT'S JUST FINE WITH HIM. HIS FACE HAS SOME OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EYES WE HAVE SEEN, THEY ARE A GORGEOUS, SOFT CHESTNUT COLOR AND SPARKLE LIKE A MILLION STARS WHEN REUBEN FIRST SEES YOU. NOT ONLY A BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL FELLOW JUST WAIT TIL YOU MEET HIM YOU WILL SEE THERE IS A TON MORE TO REUBEN THEN JUST A PRETTY FACE.(ALTHOUGH HIS FACE TRULY IS PRETTY) HE IS A TRUE "COMPANION", DEEPLY AFFECTIONATE, SO FRIENDLY AND EXTREMELY LOVING, A PUP THAT LOVES TO PLEASE.

JUST CALL HIS NAME AND OVER TO YOU HE'S COMING, HE WILL COME AND SIT AS CLOSE TO YOU AS HE CAN GET, LOOKING AT YOU WITH THOSE DREAMY EYES ASKING FOR A PAT OR A RUB WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE TO REFUSE. HE IS A PUP WHO SOAKS UP EVERY MINUTE WHEN GIVEN , HUGS, LOVE AND ATTENTION, HIS TRUE HAPPINESS IS BEING WITH THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. HE IS ALSO OUR "AMBASSADOR OF GOODWILL" WHO ADORES EVERYONE HE MEETS AND DOGS, YOUNG, OLD, BIG OR SMALL, HIS IMMEDIATE NEW BEST FRIEND. IN FACT REUBEN SPENDS HIS DAYS PLAYING WITH SEVERAL OF OUR OTHER RESCUE DOGS, TO WATCH REUBEN AND HIS BEST DOG BUDDIES RUN AND PLAY WILL INDEED BRING A HUGE SMILE TO YOUR FACE(HE'S EVEN FINE WITH CATS)REUBEN IS ONE OF THE SWEETEST AND MOST LOVING PUPS WE HAVE SEEN, THIS PUP IS HAPPY ALL THE TIME GREETING EVERYONE HE MEETS AND ALL DOGS WITH A TAIL WAG AND SPARKLING EYES. REUBEN IS A PUP THAT YOU COULD TAKE ANYWHERE AND HE WOULD MAKE YOU PROUD, JUST GET USE TO BEING STARED AT WHEN FOLKS SEE HIM, HE IS A SHOW STOPPER!!. HE WOULD ADORE AN EARLY MORNING WALK OR JOG, REUBEN IS IN GREAT SHAPE, A PUP WHO WILL MATCH YOU STEP FOR STEP. THIS PUP IN MOTIONS IS TRULY BEAUTIFUL TO WATCH, HE HAS A SMOOTH FLOWING GAIT, HIS COAT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE FEATHERS BLOWING IN THE BREEZE WHEN REUBEN MOVES, HE WOULD BE AN EXCELLENT WALKING OR JOGGING BUDDY. IF YOUR WEEKEND CALLED FOR A GET-A-WAY TO YOUR CABIN IN THE MOUNTAINS, BOY IS REUBEN READY, HE ADORES THE OUTDOORS AND WOULD SPEND THE DAY EXPLORING NEW TRAILS, DIVING IN A BIG FLUFFY SNOW BANK, CHASING ANY STICK YOU THREW HIM, ENJOYING NATURE, ENJOYING LIFE.
