About Dusty Rhodes

Meet Dusty Rhodes, a small but mighty 6-pound Miniature Poodle mix who brings sweetness to every room he enters. At around 10 years old, Dusty was discovered wandering a neighborhood and rescued by a kind-hearted person. His move to the shelter was a temporary hold due to his microchip, the importance of which cannot be overstated—remember to register and update your pet’s microchip! Dusty had a rough start; he came in with matted fur that impacted his gums and teeth. Fortunately, he will receive veterinary care on August 27th for a dental check-up and treatment. Once he has healed, he will be ready for adoption. This little gentleman deserves a loving home where he can thrive and enjoy his golden years. Don’t let him end up as a wrestling superstar; he’s meant for much more. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
