My story

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

HOW ABOUT MEETING SIR RUFUS !!

Take a look at his video on this site!

Doberman/Rottie mix (best guess)
8-9 years young and approximately 45lbs.

Rufus was found as a stray in the Lancaster hills. Coyote bait? Why people want to do that with nice dogs is such a mystery.

Rufus does NOT act his age...he feels younger.
He gets joyful & animated when someone throws BALLS..he's a pro at chasing/catching balls.

He prefers a casual stroll more than a jogging partner....
Rufus is a good couch partner.
Rufus will also be your alert dog....letting you know when someone is coming!

RUFUS could be an ONLY DOG or BE A BUDDY DOG with another Friendly dog.

Rufus does like to please his human and also has an independent streak. He enjoys playing in the yard.

Rufus is a good companion and we are looking for him to have that home where he gets TO BE INCLUDED WITH HIS FAMILY ADVENTURES.

Rufus is neutered, microchipped and vaccinated.

We are only adopting out in Southern California.
With an approved application & a home check we offer a 2 week trial period.

More about this rescue

THE FORGOTTEN DOG FOUNDATION rescues, rehabilitates and re-homes shelter, stray, abused and abandoned dogs. Our goal is to place our rescues in foster homes rather than in boarding facilities. After temperament assessment, needed veterinary services, and lots of attention and socialization we carefully screen and place these dogs in loving forever homes.
