Rusty is a classic Anatolian Shepherd, though he was once mistaken for a Labrador at the shelter. At two years old, he's a big, athletic dog who loves to sprint and play. Rusty has shown himself to be friendly and easygoing, getting along well with everyone he's met until now. He fits best with an active family who can give him both exercise and structure. Like many livestock guardian breeds, Rusty needs an alpha figure and should attend an obedience class to flourish. Because of his size, homes with children over 8 are recommended. Rusty is house trained, vaccinated, neutered, and looking for a home where he gets the activity and leadership he thrives on. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
