Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi my name is Ruger, I'm approximately 3 years old. I live in Arkansas right now with my foster family, boy do I love them so much and they love me right back. I LOVE to go bye bye and I do great in cars!!! I also am a low energy pup, but foster mama says I am an absolute lovebug...whatever that means 😊!!!!! I have 3 foster bubbies that I do great with and I have my foster dog bubby and sissies too!!!! We have fun! I have a foster cat, but I'm not too sure about him, he annoys me. I also give great hugs! I have so much to tell you about me, but I do need to tell you a few important facts, so I'll just get.to it, so I can get back to telling you how awesome I really am!
First of all, no crates/kennels, don't waste your time, don't waste your money. They are not for me. I do not like them at all. So absolutely no crates or kennels for the rugester man! (Btw that's me hehe).
Secondly, I have a little bit if separation anxiety but I have done so much better with it. So I really need to have a bubby or sissy puppy dog around...just not one cuter than me!
Lastly, I am protective of my yard, house and family. I need to be introduced slowly to new people, especially when I'm already in a new environment. I just need time to adjust, because I have been with my foster family for a while, so new things will make me a bit nervous until I know I'm safe.
Other than that, I'm nothing but pure awesome! I love to give hugs (Just making that clear) and I absolutely LOVE TO SNUGGLE!!!!!!
I dont really play with toys too much but I do enjoying going outside, I'm good on a leash too! Just more awesomeness! I think that's a word, if not, it is now because that's what I am. I am current on all my shots, neutered, I have a microchip, I am current on my heartworm and flea/tick preventative too! My coat is soft and shiny.
I just know my furever home is out there somewhere. Want to give me a chance?! I hope to so because, well...im just awesome!
