Story
Russ is the kind of dog who makes every day a little brighter. With his expressive face, playful spirit, and “ready for fun” energy, he’s impossible not to love. Russ is smart as can be and loves showing off his skills. He already knows sit, stay, shake/paw, and lay down. He learns quickly, especially when treats are involved, and he enjoys having little “jobs” or enrichment activities throughout the day. He is a companion who loves being part of the family routine. He’s also a toy enthusiast of the highest order. Squeakers, tug toys, or fetch, Russ is here for all of it. He’s a dedicated chewer too, and happily keeps himself busy with sturdy toys like Nylabones or yak chews. After playtime, he loves gathering his blankets into a cozy little pile and settling in for a nap. Russ is halfway through his heartworm treatment and doing wonderfully. If you’re looking for a bright, loving, loyal dog who brings fun, personality, and heart into every moment, Russ might be the perfect match. He’s ready to be someone’s best friend — and he has so much love to give. The Seattle Animal Shelter is committed to reducing length of stay for all of our shelter pets!
