Ruger wants to play play play all day! He is a fun loving, 45 pound beagle mix who loves toys and other dogs! Like LOVES toys! Anything is a toy!
He is active, playful, and super friendly. He is almost housetrained and has been doing well at his foster home. He is crate trained and quiet in the crate. He is goofy and just wants to play all the time. Oh and get pets. And snacks. And 2nd breakfast, tea time, elevenses, supper, and dinner. Once he finishes a meal, he looks around for the rest of it!
Ruger is learning some household manners like to not counter surf and to walk nicely on a leash. He has been doing well with training and now knows to not jump on others and to sit and wait for a treat. Its just HARRRDDDD to wait because he loves food and is sooooo energetic.
Because he is so strong and is a bit of a "bull in a china shop", we think that a home with out toddlers would be best simply because he does not always think when playing and can easily knock a small child over. He is not mean about it, but he is a puppy still and he just doesn't know any better. He seems to be just over one year old and has spent October through January in either Animal Control or a boarding kennel, so he is learning how to be a good house dog.
**Ruger's adoption fee is going towards his boarding and training**

More about this rescue
The Fayette County Humane Society (FCHS), staffed entirely by volunteers, is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization supported entirely by individual and corporate donations. Because we do not have a shelter, all of the animals we rescue live in temporary foster homes until they are adopted. We believe that all companion pets have intrinsic value and should be treated with the reverence and care they deserve.
