Rescued on 8/19/07 and then adopted into a forever home, thanks to United Hope Rescue. Rufus LOVES other dogs and people…does fantastic at the dog park. His foster mom took him camping and he was AWESOME. Stayed at the camp site when off leash, would just chill near her and wasn’t nervous. He does have plenty of energy so he needs an active family that will ensure he gets his exercise! He had to be evacuated from the fires since his foster home was right in the middle of it all….that was fun at 4 am!!! He is currently in a foster home with other dogs in San Diego, but would love to find his forever home soon.

SO friendly, playful, lean & BOUNDS through the air in happy leaps!! Super smart. He lived with cats & dogs, but might do best in a home without cats or small fluffy dogs as he thinks its too much fun to chase them. Luvs running and riding in the car, walks really well on leash, and loves kids and squeaky toys too! He knows "sit" and "down" commands already, and would love to learn more.
