My story

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

Rufus has the cutest bark that sounds like a turkey

Rufus joined Animal Helper in June, from a shelter in Florence Alabama. Rufus has obviously had a rough life prior to coming to Animal Helper. With alot of love and attention, he has adjusted well and is loving life. Rufus is very trusting of his foster, will need a little adjustment period once adopted, but will warm up to his new family and be just fine. He will be a very loyal and loving dog. Rufus loves all other dogs. He had a past of food aggresion, but he is no longer food aggressive, thanks to the help of his foster mom and foster pets. Rufus is house and crate trained. He now always has a smile on his face and wags his tail nonstop. He's always is full of energy and ready to play. He runs all over the yard every time he goes out like its his first time.
Rufus is around 2 years old, neutered, heartworm negative, and chipped. He is up to date on shots, heartworm and flea prevention. He had a negative fecal and vet exam. If you are interested in adopting or fostering email animalhelperneworleans@gmail.com
