Hello, Wonderful People! Meet Rufus, the super cute Shepherd mix with a personality that could light up any room! 🌟 Now, Rufus may be rocking a unique look with some alopecia on his body—don’t let that fool you! He has an adorable tuft of fur on his head and those charming legs that can't help but steal your heart. ❤️ Rufus has a story that needs to be heard. His hair loss results from a few medical conditions, including allergies and something called dysbiosis, but you know what? That doesn't hold him back! This handsome guy is carefully monitored by amazing veterinary staff who make sure he feels his best with medications for anxiety, B12 injections, and probiotics. 🐾 Oh, and he gets to enjoy a hypoallergenic diet and weekly medicated baths—talk about pampered! But let's get to the fun part! Rufus is incredibly smart and has more energy than a toddler who’s just discovered sugar! 🍬 He’s an adventurous spirit, ready to be your hiking buddy and protector all in one. And don’t let that Shepherd mix size fool you; Rufus believes he is a lap dog! So, if you love a cuddle session on the couch, he’s your guy! 🛋️ What Rufus truly needs is a loving Forever Home with someone who understands his special needs and is ready to shower him with the care and attention he deserves. Could that be you? He’s eager to find his soulmate and embark on this incredible journey together! And remember, all Forever Fosters must reside within 100 miles of Mt. Juliet, TN. Rufus’s medical expenses for life will be happily taken care of—because that’s how special he is! So don't delay, let your heart lead the way and apply to adopt this amazing boy through the Buddy App today! 🌈
