About Rusty

Meet Rusty! This adorable male pup is just 3 months old and weighs 6 lbs. Available for adoption through Ma Paws & Me Pet Rescue in Watertown, WI, Rusty is already spayed and microchipped. He’s also up to date on all age-appropriate vaccines, dewormed, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. Rusty is still learning about house training and would benefit from a patient family. He’s a mixed breed, which adds to his charm. Since Rusty is currently in a foster home, he won't be available for drop-in visits. Instead, interested adopters will need to submit an application to meet him. With a $450 adoption fee helping to cover his medical care, Rusty is ready for a loving forever home. He’s waiting for a family to call his own. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
