Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This handsome boy is one of our newest rescues....Meet Rusty! This little boy is a 4/5 year old, 12lb Spaniel/Chihuahua mix that is as sweet as can be. Rusty was found abandoned on the street left to survive on his own. When we got him, he was full of fleas and ticks, but still so grateful to be saved. He is still new to us and we are learning more about him and his personality every day, but he seems to do best with female dogs or he could be an "only" dog if he has owners that will socialize him and keep him active. We are looking for an adult only home with owners that are not gone long hours during the day. He would also love a safe and secure yard to practice leash walking and get some sunshine. Rusty is absolutely handsome in person and would make a great companion dog. He is a little shy and unsure when he first meets you, but with patience, time, and lots of love...he will open up and become your best friend in no time!
Rusty is vaccinated, microchipped, and will be neutered very soon.
We only adopt in the The Greater Los Angeles Areas only as an in person meet/greet, home check , and trial period are required.
If you meet all the requirements, please complete an application-see link below.
Rusty's adoption fee is $500
