Story
This is Rubble. This handsome boy came to us from a partner shelter transport. Rubble is a very mellow, and well-mannered dog. He walks well on a leash, knows sit, takes treats nicely (when he wants to), and loves to cuddle you and give kisses. He will even stop in the middle of playing with his toys to come over and give you a kiss! Rubble can be an attention hog sometimes and gets jealous easily so going home with someone who can give him their undivided attention would be the best fit. If you are looking for a handsome, sweet, and funny little guy to bring home come meet Rubble! If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.
