My story

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

Attention: This is a courtesy posting only! This pet is NOT available through Mountain Pet Rescue.  Please do NOT contact MPR for information about the pet or apply to adopt this pet on the MPR website.   Text 949-697-6155 (Jeff), 949-697-6134 (Carla) or 828-708-5515 (Makailey) or email Jcmmm9@gmail.com or mottejcmmm@yahoo.com (Carla) for more information or to adopt the pet.

Rofus the Giant Cuddle bug needs you. He is so sweet and ready to “hug,” a trick he quickly learned. He’s a sponge for learning tricks. When you tell him to get his baby, he runs for his stuffy. Oh, and he’s loving the creek. Searching for rocks. He has been living with 4 other dogs. Plays well with everyone.

But here’s the but, and why we aren’t his perfect home. Rofus has bed aggression or where he’s sleeping or his owner is sleeping. We have been trying different things but it’s becoming unsafe for our other pups. We are heart broken, and this is definitely not easy, but it’s best for him as well. He deserves so much love. He definitely will make you feel safe.

He’s never been around small children so we don’t know how he is. We have lots of stray cats and house cats. All the dogs love to give chase but when Rofus is alone and next to a cat he listens to leave them alone, but that’s as far as we’ve gotten with him and cats. Probably should be the only dog at first. Rofus weighs about 75 lbs, is 11 months old and needs you. We need you. Rofus is neutered and up to date on his shots.  So, if you’re looking for your forever lover/protector, text 949-697-6155 (Jeff), 949-697-6134 (Carla) or 828-708-5515 (Makailey) or email Jcmmm9@gmail.com or mottejcmmm@yahoo.com (Carla) to learn more about sweet Rofus.  We are located in the mountains of western North Carolina and are willing to travel for the perfect fit. 



All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption. Contact the foster parent or Mountain Pet Rescue at pets@mpravl.org for more information.

Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.

Mountain Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit tax deductible charity (EIN 82-3039637) located in Asheville, NC.
