My story

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

This is Rufus, he is a 1.5 year old American English Coonhound/Mountain Cur mix. He is currently right at 50lbs. We rescued him when he was about 4 months old. We had hoped he would be a companion for our older dog, but we’ve been experiencing issues with resource guarding. Due to this we would recommend he go to a home with no other dogs. He is the sweetest boy and loves to snuggle with his humans. He’s extremely intelligent and recently completed a 3-week board and train program. Rufus is house-trained, crate-trained, and can walk in a perfect heel. He would thrive in a home with a big yard or on a farm where he has lots of room to roam, and with a family that has an active lifestyle.
