He’s a remarkable 6-year-old Cattle Dog/Labrador mix, weighing 64 pounds and blessed with a beautiful black coat and an affectionate personality. Ruger is fully house-trained and crate-trained, having lived with cats and children before. He thrives in an active environment where playtime and outdoor adventures are part of the daily routine. Toys like tennis balls and puzzle feeders keep him engaged. Ruger enjoys walks and is well-behaved on a leash, showing off his calm demeanor when encountering others. In his foster home, he has settled in well alongside two other dogs, though he prefers calm canine companions who respect his space.
