🌟 Introducing the fabulous Rufus! 🌟 This delightful cattle dog mix is like a burst of sunshine on a rainy day! At just 5 months old, Rufus is overflowing with curiosity, playfulness, and that oh-so-irresistible puppy charm that has everyone swooning! 🐶💖 You won't believe how much joy he brings to those around him, especially when it involves making new friends—canine ones, in particular! Rufus truly thrives when he has other doggy pals to romp and wrestle with. Just picture him zipping around, bringing laughter and wagging tails to every corner! 🐕✨ But there's more! Rufus isn’t just a pretty face; he’s smart, alert, and eager to connect with his people. He’s at that golden age where the possibilities are endless, and with a sprinkle of patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement, he’s destined to blossom into an incredible companion! 🌼💡 Now, Rufus is looking for an active adopter who understands the joys and challenges of herding breeds. If you've got experience with cattle dogs or similar high-energy working breeds, you're just the person he’s been waiting for! Here’s what Rufus envisions in his future home: • A standalone home (no apartments or shared walls—he’s got zoomies to unleash!) 🏡 • A securely fenced yard for those joyous play sessions and energetic zoomies 🌳 • An active household ready to devote time to daily exercise and mental engagement 🏃‍♀️💨 • A family committed to continuing the training that every puppy so desperately needs 🐕‍🦺 Remember, Rufus is still young and learning; he will need some guidance with house training, leash skills, and basic manners, plus good outlets for all that lively puppy energy! In return, this lovable furball will shower you with endless laughs, unwavering loyalty, and heartwarming love. 💞✨ Rufus is microchipped, neutered, and up to date on his vaccinations—he’s ready to find his forever family! With an adoption fee of $550, this charming boy could be yours! 🌈 Don’t miss the chance to make him a part of your life, and remember to *apply through the Buddy App* today!
