Meet Ruger, a handsome 5 year old boy. We think that he’s a cocker blend with something else, but what? Ruger is a gorgeous chocolate brown with a white chest. He is cocker size, weighing in a 35 lbs. Ruger is a bit of a shy dog and needs a bit of time to warm up to people. He adores male persons, following foster dad around. Ruger loves cuddling with foster dad in a recliner. If foster dad isn’t around, Ruger will either lie by you or snuggle in his foster mom's lap. Low to moderate energy, Ruger enjoys playing chase with the female family dog. While initially apprehensive about walks, henow gleefully dances around when he sees his harness for a walk around the neighborhood. This boy loves treats and will go outside and come right back in just to get one! He doesn’t show much interest in dog toys, though. Ruger would be best in a home with teenage or older children, as the activity of young children may be too much for Ruger’s innate shyness. Ruger is largely housetrained. We take him outside at times throughout the day so he can do his business. Sometimes we need to stay outside with him, because he likes to be around people. Walks also help Ruger to do his business. Ruger is 35 lbs, and is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations and is heartworm negative on heartworm preventative. If you'd like a fellow to be a wonderful companion, please consider this very handsome boy.
