Rufus, a 12- to 13-year-old senior, lost his longtime home when his people had to move back to India. He’s a healthy, neutered, and vaccinated mix of Terrier and Chihuahua, with a recent dental showing he’s kept in good shape. Rufus gravitates to recliners for naps, but his favorite thing is simply being close to someone. Leaving the house triggers a little howl, but he soon settles in. He loves being brushed and has an affectionate, gentle nature that makes him easy to care for. Rufus is a solid companion for an adult—he clearly misses his old routine and thrives with steady companionship. With his golden coat (short to medium length) and easy-to-please temperament, he just needs a kind person willing to give him a second chance. As a Capricorn, Rufus brings classic loyalty and steady presence to your life. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
