My story

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

Rufas would do best in a home with no other dogs and older children. Rufas is a very sweet boy who adores attention. He loves to get a but scratch from time to time! Rufas is very food motivated. He is potty trained and leash trained. He is a very happy and playful boy. He loves to run around the play yard and get the zoomies! He is such a good boy and has come a long way!Please visit our website, www.colonialcapitalhs.org to fill out an application today!
