Ruger is a 5-year-old mixed breed with a cheerful personality and a strong streak of loyalty. He prefers to be the only pet in the home, as he isn't comfortable around other dogs. Ruger thrives with people who want a devoted companion—he's happiest when he can cuddle up on the couch or follow you outside for a bit of exploring. You’ll always find him curious and ready for whatever’s next, as long as he’s with his people. Ruger will do best in a home where his energy can be matched with play in the backyard and regular walks. If you’re looking for a sweet, active dog who wants a one-on-one bond, Ruger might be the missing piece in your life. Born June 12, Ruger is a Gemini—no surprise he’s both playful and affectionate.
