Description

Meet Rufus-(aka Fuzzy) Please email for more information ([email protected])

This handsome boy is a 1 year/3 month old mixed breed and is a bit timid with new people, therefore, we are suggesting an adult only home.

He was in a temporary home and they said he did amazing with other dogs, and did great at the groomer, and doggy daycare ( they loved him.)

He does warm up to people fairly easily but is a lot slower to warm up to men, so it may take multiple visits.
?
He likes walks and he is house trained! He was never crate trained but was left behind a gate when they left the home.

His adoption fee is $400 which includes being fully vetted, spayed, microchipped and fecal exam.

Please be advised:

A $100 cash training deposit is required for all dogs at the time of adoption. At Hopeful Tails, we believe training is essential to setting both our dogs and their adopters up for long-term success. This deposit will be fully refunded upon confirmation of completion of a training class.
