About Rudy

This could be the start of something paw-some. Meet Rudy, a young male vizsla/weimaraner/doberman mix, whose mom was rescued while pregnant in Bakersfield, making him a true rescue pup from the very beginning. Born on November 7th, Rudy is naturally friendly yet a bit shy around new people, just like his siblings. Rudy will thrive in a home with experienced dog owners and would truly benefit from having another friendly dog or two as companions. Since he comes from hunting breeds, he'll need to be kept on leash or securely contained, especially around small dogs, cats, and other small critters. Rudy is already neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, so he’s ready to find that perfect family. Maybe your home is just what Rudy has been patiently waiting for. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
