Story
Rusty is a very friendly boy who is always happy! He walks with a bounce in his step and has a constant wagging tail! He loves people and always wants to be the center of attention! If you're looking for a little shadow and a lap dog, you've found your guy! Rusty won't leave your side! He enjoys being held like a baby and will fall asleep in your arms. If you stop petting him, he will paw at you for more! We would love to find him a family where someone is home often. He wouldn't enjoy being alone for long periods of time. He gets along with other animals but has no interested in playing with anyone else. He would honestly prefer to be the only pet so he doesn't have to share any of the affection but, if you have a quiet, independent dog, he would do fine! Rusty is only with us because his previous owner passed away. He was loved and we can tell! He is approx 6 to 7 years old and about 10lbs. He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. We haven't had him long, but he appears to be housebroken because he hasn't had any accidents in the house! He is also crate trained but would prefer to be free if possible. He loves car rides and going for walks, but must wear a harness because he will pull until the collar makes him cough! If you're interested in adopting Rusty, please submit an adoption application on our website at www.dominoeffectanimalrescue.orgJanuary 19, 2025, 9:26 pm
