Story
It’s the same old story: Family moving, can't take me with them. ME? I'm tiny, I can go anywhere, what were they thinking? Anyway, their loss is your gain. I'm a pretty easy guy; I've lived with other dogs and kids but I can be a bit shy at first. Come check me out at Forte's adoption events and maybe you are my forever home … and I do mean FOREVER. If you are interested in meeting Little Bear, please download the Adoption Questionnaire, fill it out and email it back to us at info@farescue.org or fax (310) 362-0321. You can also meet this and/or other available dogs at our weekend adoptions. [Little Bear is about 10 months old and weighs 8 lbs.] (2408)

Rufus

Cairn Terrier

Male, Adult
Los Angeles, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Rufus is a smart, energetic, and loving little terrier who is looking for a good home. He has a ton of character and personality and has a lot of love to give. We rescued him about 6 years ago and the shelter estimated that he was about 4 years old at the time so that puts him at about 10 years old now. Rufus is house trained and knows basic commands (i.e., sit, down, stay). We are expecting a child soon and we think that Rufus should be at a home that can provide him with the time and attention he deserves. He would do well in a home that can help him channel his energy through regular walks and play. He does not do well with large dogs but get's along well with small dogs just fine. He can be a bit slow to warm but once he does you’ll have a dog that will love you with everything he has.
