Rufus is a 1.5-year-old English Pointer and German Shorthaired Pointer mix who’s spent his entire life in an apartment. He’s never had the chance to explore wide-open spaces or experience the joy of the outdoors. But Rufus is ready for a fresh start—a life filled with love, adventure, and the confidence to embrace the world.
While Rufus is playful and eager to learn, his strong prey drive means he needs a home with no cats or small dogs. He’s looking for a family who will help him build confidence and guide him toward his best self. With patience and support, Rufus will become a loyal and loving companion who’s ready to take on life’s adventures by your side.
Bloodwork: Testing for heartworm, Lyme, Ehrlichia, and Anaplasma
Deworming
Spay/Neuter
Microchipping
If the dog required any other vet treatment or surgery while in our care, this is also included in the adoption fee. All known medical information is explained to adopters prior to adoption.
All our dogs come with a leash, collar, toy and a small bag of kibble.
We put a lot of work, time, care and love into each one of these dogs. They are treated like one of our own. We are open and transparent about the dogs in our care.
