Meet Ruger, a lively 5-year-old Pointer/Brittany Spaniel mix who's eager for his next great adventure. He’s a bundle of energy who thrives on activity and love, seeking an active family that can keep up with him. Ruger enjoys playing, especially in water, and has a background in hunting and retrieving small game. Having been around kids, livestock, and other animals, he has shown he can fit in well with them. However, Ruger is a runner, so he needs a home with a secure 6-foot fence to ensure his safety. While he’s working on his recall, he may wander off during an adventure, so his future family should continue training him to come when called. Ruger’s big personality and enthusiasm for life are contagious. If you're searching for an adventure buddy, whether hiking or playing in the water, he’s your dog! He needs a caring family who can provide him with exercise and fun. Ruger is ready to love and be loved—will you be the one to take him home? Ready to make Ruger part of your family?
