About Rusty

Rusty is one of five adorable puppies who were found abandoned on a ranch. Now in a loving foster home, he’s a friendly, sweet pup who’s already been sterilized and vaccinated. He has tested negative for heartworm and is on preventative treatments for heartworm and fleas/ticks. Rusty gets along well with other household pets, including three dogs, three cats, horses, and longhorns. He is good with people and kids as well, making him a great family addition. This well-behaved young pup responds to commands and is learning to "sit," "lie down," and "no." Remarkably, he comes when called, even without a fence, and is both kennel- and potty-trained. His size is just right and he isn’t expected to grow much more.
