Meet the incredible Russ! 🎉 After a four-month stint in the County Animal Shelter, this lovable lad is ready to steal hearts! Now, before you raise an eyebrow, let me share a little backstory. Russ ended up in the shelter because he was simply *hungry*—and we all know how cranky hunger can make us! 😅 He just wanted to send a message with a little bite: "Hey! I could use a snack over here!" Let's be honest, though; who wouldn’t get a bit hangry if they were abandoned and searching for food and companionship? At 6 years old and weighing in at a perfect 15 pounds, Russ has calmed down quite a bit now that he’s getting his regular meals. 👏 However, like any superstar who’s been through the ups and downs of life, he can still get anxious sometimes. But guess what? He’s eager to find a cozy forever home where he can finally feel safe and loved. ❤️ If you’re looking for a buddy who’s got a heart of gold, Russ could be your man! The shelter operates on an appointment-only basis, so it's super important for potential adopters to fill out their application before arranging a meeting with this charming fellow. The staff are absolutely wonderful and are ready to answer any questions you may have. So don’t delay—take the first step toward a beautiful friendship and *apply through the Buddy App* today! 💕
