Rufus is a big boy with an even bigger heart—and a personality that’s impossible not to smile at. He has a wonderfully silly side that shines through in everything he does. Got an itchy ear? You might catch him rubbing his head on the ground and scooting along with his back legs like he’s inventing his own dance move.
With his classic bloodhound features—long ears and an extra-long nose—every goofy moment somehow becomes even more cartoonish. Rufus truly marches to the beat of his own drum. He can be gentle and sweet, but when excitement hits, he’s got a joyful burst of energy to match.
If you’re looking for a dog who brings laughter, love, and a whole lot of personality into your life, Rufus is ready to be your one-of-a-kind companion.

We ask all who are interested in adopting an animal to fill out an adoption application. We interview all potential adopters with the goal of placing an animal with the correct family and compatible lifestyle. This is of prime importance – we endeavor to make this new home the animal’s residence for life. All of our animals must be spayed or neutered before leaving our facility as part of our adoption contract.
The adoption fees include spay / neuter costs as well as any vaccinations administered at the shelter. All animals are microchipped and your adoption fee covers the cost of a dog license for all of our Blaine County residents. You’ll also go home with a bag of food and a bag of goodies for your new pet!
