Rusty just turned 2 and he’s a large, short-coated German Shepherd mix with striking brindle fur. He’s an affectionate dog who thrives on attention, always up for kisses and hugs. Rusty is easygoing with everyone and is sharp during training—he’s picking up his basic commands quickly with the help of a professional trainer. House trained and working on crate training, he settles in easily and has a calm energy for his size. Rusty is bonded to his brother Bandit—they’re littermates and best friends. They do best together, so preference is given to adopting them as a pair. With their trusting personalities and mellow presence, both dogs fit seamlessly into most homes, especially those wanting a gentle giant or two. Rusty does well with other dogs and children, making him a good fit for families or households with existing pets. Give this pair a chance to stay side by side in a loving home.
