About Rumi

Rumi is a spirited 4-month-old mix, likely a Shepherd and Collie, weighing about 18 lbs now and expected to reach 35-45 lbs as an adult. Abandoned with his three siblings on a Texas roadside, they were rescued just in time and received the care they desperately needed at a local vet before making their way to our rescue in Colorado. This affectionate pup is well on his way to being house trained and has mastered the dog door thanks to his attentive foster family. Rumi thrives in the company of other dogs, both big and small, and he adores all the humans he meets, including kids. With his playful energy, he’s always eager for fun in the yard. Rumi will flourish with an adoptive family who loves training and is looking for a loyal companion for adventures. If you’re ready to share your life with this loving dog, he’s waiting for you to fill out an application.
