My story

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

Rusty lost his family and his fellow dog pack, all except for his blind older brother Chico. He dutifully guides and comforts Chico and both boys are thankful to at least still have each other in this seemingly scary world.
Rusty doesn't enjoy being picked up but will lick your hand and with patience will trust you for pets, he gets excited when his people come home and wants to bond again.

He adores other dogs and is comforted by having them around, he will copy them to learn the household routines. He is fine with sleeping in or out of a crate. He adores food and is very treat motivated!
This handsome boy may be shy but he's well mannered and hopes someone will let him and Chico join their home till they can find the perfect family.
