About Rudy

Rudy is an 11-week-old Heeler mix who came to us as an owner surrender, alongside his sister. He’s a sweet and social little guy who has already made a great impression in his foster home. Training-wise, he’s doing well with house training and has mastered crate training. Rudy is friendly with everyone, whether it’s kids, dogs, or even cats. This playful pup loves to cuddle, play with his toys, and explore the yard. He’s smart and even starting leash training, showing potential for continued learning. Rudy would thrive in a family that’s committed to his training and socialization, helping him grow into the intelligent dog he’s meant to be. While his mom weighs about 35 lbs, we can't guarantee what size he’ll be as an adult. If you’re looking for a fun-loving companion, Rudy is ready to be your new best friend. To start the adoption process, remember that you must be at least 24 years old. Apply today!
