My story

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

Rufus is currently in RI and looking for a 'furever' home!

Meet Rufus, a mostly white pocket pittie mix with the most handsome hazel eyes. He's equal parts playful and cuddly and has a great disposition with people and other dogs. Rufus loves his humans and feels much more at ease when they are around - a home where you're home most of the time would be best so he never worries about being alone ever again! You'll find him playing with his squeaky toys, napping, and observing the neighborhood from his favorite window.

Rufus is working on house training and learning the ropes of being in a home, making strides every day. While not a requirement, we do think Rufus would benefit from having another playful dog companion, or a home where he can regularly socialize with other canine pals. He is still getting used to the leash and going for walks - a fenced yard where he can run around and feel secure would be best.

Rufus loves to go on hikes. He is such a lovebug and so ready to start his next chapter. Are YOU ready to find your new best friend?
