Story
â¤ï¸ Meet Rufus — Handsome, Happy & Ready to Steal Your Heart! â¤ï¸ Hi there! I'm Rufus Whitman, a 3-year-old orange-and-white neutered Brittany boy with a heart full of love, a nose for adventure, and a personality that's pretty hard to resist! My story didn't start out so great. I was abandoned near a sand pit, but thankfully, a kind stranger rescued me! I still don't understand why anyone would give up a wonderful guy like me, but I'm not looking backward. I'm too busy dreaming about my FOREVER family! â¤ï¸ Let me tell you a little about myself! I'm a happy, affectionate, fun-loving boy who loves EVERYONE! Dogs? Love 'em! Cats? We're good! People? Oh boy, they're my FAVORITE! I'm also quite the smarty-pants! I figured out the doggy door on my very first day! I'm housebroken, mostly crate trained, walk beautifully on a leash, and would love to learn some new tricks. I aim to please, although I occasionally like to investigate what's on the kitchen counter. Hey, nobody's perfect! Now, let's talk about FUN! ï¸ Squirrel watching? I'm a professional! Splashing and swimming? Count me in! Long walks, hikes, and adventures? Where's my leash? â¤ï¸ Couch cuddles after a fun day? Scoot over, I'm coming! I'm a calm, well-mannered gentleman indoors, but I still have that wonderful Brittany spirit that loves exploring and having fun. I'd especially enjoy having another young, playful dog to share my adventures with! My dream home has a securely fenced yard, a family who enjoys spending time with me, and someone willing to keep helping me perfect my manners. My health report? I'm one healthy, happy boy! I'm up to date on vaccinations, heartworm and tick disease negative, and on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. Here's the thing about me: I may have been left behind once, but I haven't stopped loving or trusting people. I still greet the world with a wagging tail and a heart full of hope. I don't need a perfect family. I just need MY family. One that will take me on adventures, laugh at my silly Brittany antics, cuddle with me at the end of the day, and love me forever. So, what do you say? Could we write the happiest chapter of my story together? â¤ï¸ Love, tail wags, and a few sloppy kisses, Rufus The adoption fee for TX/Rufus Whitman, who lives in McKinney, TX area is $400, (which helps to offset our vetting and allows NBRAN to rescue more of these wonderful family members.
