Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi There I'm RUFUS!
Like a lot of doggies I ended up at the most scary place on earth...The Pound! No one really knows too much about me except that my not so good owner didn't want me any more-guess maybe they didn't realize that they kill a lot of us who end up there. Or maybe they just didn't care. I am one of the lucky ones-a RESCUE came and got me out and into a heavenly place called a foster home. I am treated so kindly and with so much LOVE now. I am around 11 months old and a maltese mix and I can be a little shy especially with men so the perfect home for me will be with someone who can give me structure and also be understanding. I'd also do best in a home with adults and no small kids. I do love to snuggle and go on walks and I'm also content to just hang with a nice human and chill. If you thik that you are the one for me please go to www.bulliesandbuddies.com and fill out an application and let's meet! Southern CA area adoption only-sorry but we DO NOT ship or send dogs out of state
