My story

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

Meet Rusty the soft-hearted gentleman of 12 winters. Hes easygoing in that comforting, old-soul way, with sweetness that hums quietly through every moment. Potty trained, well-mannered, and wonderfully low-maintenance, hes the kind of dog who blends into a home like hes always belonged there. Rusty gets along beautifully with dogs of all ages and sizes. His voice is rarely heardhe mostly saves it for politely requesting to come back inside after a stroll in the yard. He learned the house routine almost immediately and lets you know when he needs to go out. What he loves most: burrowing into blankets and curling up beside his favorite human on the couch or in bed, like a warm, breathing bookmark. Rusty is simply a good old man hoping to find his personsomeone to share the gentle, golden chapter ahead. He is 12 years , 17 pounds and currently in great shape!We know his forever family is out there !!
