Mix, male, 2 years, 66 lbs. Meet Rusty! This charming and handsome boy is ready to steal your heart! While he may be a bit shy when meeting new faces, don’t let that fool you—once Rusty feels comfortable, he’s a total love bug and will shower you with all the snuggles and affection you could ever want. He’s the ultimate cuddle buddy who’ll keep you company through cozy nights, as he’s calm and quiet at bedtime. Rusty is housebroken and crate trained, so he’s a breeze to care for. He would be happiest in an adult only home, and while he’s lived with other dogs before, he’d do best with a slow, thoughtful introduction. He’s a little too interested in cats to live with them. With his gentle energy, Rusty enjoys calm walks and relaxing in the sun. He would absolutely thrive with a little more leash training to make those strolls even more enjoyable. Rusty is a loyal, loving companion who would bring so much joy and warmth to any home. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate dog who’s ready to be your best friend, Rusty is the one for you! ************************************************************************* We are only accepting applications within 90 minutes of Albany, NY.
