Meet Rudy, the little warrior with a heart of gold! 💖 At just 3 months old and weighing in at a chunky 20 lbs, Rudy is a sweet Shep mix who has quite the story to tell. 🌟 Found at a worksite in Louisiana with three siblings, this brave boy has already faced unimaginable challenges. While his siblings tragically met with an untimely fate, Rudy persevered, melting the hearts of everyone who came to his rescue! Now, Rudy is in a loving foster home in New London, WI, where he’s learning that life can be safe and joyful. Estimating his future size to be around 40 to 55 lbs, he’s a delightful mix of Lab, Hound, and Shepherd, bringing the best traits of all three breeds into one adorably cuddly package! 🐶 Though this little gentleman may start off a bit shy, prepare for a dramatic transformation! Once he knows you're a friend, he’ll shower you with all the affection your heart can hold. He adores children and is slowly figuring out that playtime with cats is a diplomatic affair. 🐱👏 Potty training? Rudy is crushing it with guidance from some wise senior dogs who have shown him the ropes. He’s super food motivated—so all those yummy treats are helping him learn the ropes! Leash walks are a new adventure for him. Right now, he’s mastering the art of simply wearing the leash around the house to get comfy with it. It's all about building that confidence at his own pace. 🚶‍♂️🌈 Rudy embodies resilience and has transformed from a survivor to a thriving pup who is ready to embrace a future filled with love and companionship. He craves a family that will never let him feel alone again. Could that family be you? So, why wait?
