My story

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

Hi! My name is Rupert! I’m a very sweet boy looking for a special forever home! I came to a local shelter as a stray with a dent on my head! I know, right? Well, not sure what really happened to me, but I’m a healthy boy who looks a little different if you look closely.

I’m really dog social and love to please. As a stray, I’m used to seeing different people, which means you can introduce me to all your family and friends and I can show off my awesomeness. If they have dogs, I would love to play with them, too. I get very excited when meeting new play pals. I am a little shy with new enclosed spaces, but once you help me learn I’m in a safe space, I feel right at home. I love the warmth of the sun, going on walks, running, playing with other dogs, and playing with toys. I mean LOVE playing with toys! Check out my videos. As you can see, I’m just a happy go lucky guy!

My foster dad is showing me that I don’t have to worry about finding food anymore, so while he prepares my food, I sit patiently until he say’s it’s time to eat. In turn, I am trying to show him how to Sit and Stay, but some humans need a little more work. I’m not a big barker, but if I hear strange noises I’ll let you know. My foster dad says “thank you” and then I go back to my business. If you’re looking for a dog that is low-key yet energetic, that’s me!!!!! Don’t forget to ask about me, I’m such a special dude!

🚗 We ask that adopters live within a 3 hour radius of the Bay Area.
