My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rusty, approximately 10 months old, 56 lbs, heart worm negative, happy and friendly, solid muscular build, outgoing, very intelligent boy, it appears he may have been tied up prior to coming to the shelter as he checks out all the exits to the yard looking for an escape, he does like to nibble on your arm but does so gently and not maliciously, he is smart and listens to you and responds to your displeasure, he wiggles with happiness and we think that with the right owner he can become the awesome dog he was meant to be, he just needs a consistent owner who will train him correctly and without punishment, he does not appear to know any basic commands so he is eager and ready to learn all kinds of new and wonderful things, Rusty does not like being with other male dogs unless they are submissive but female dogs are fine
