rufus

Rufus is the kind of dog you wish you could clone—being around him just fills you with joy. Rufus is endlessly sweet, unbothered by anything, and full of gentle affection. Every volunteer looks forward to their “Rufus time.” He has this magical way of making you feel special just by leaning into you or gazing up with those warm, soulful eyes. One look at that adorable face and your heart practically melts. We’re truly honored to care for him while he waits for his forever family, but we know our hearts will rest easier once he’s in a home where he’s loved as deeply as he loves others. He deserves that. He is sad in a kennel and misses having a family of his own. Rufus is deserving, and he’s going to make someone’s life so much warmer. Rufus was found wandering in the pouring rain, soaked and alone. The kind person who spotted him pulled over, and without hesitation, Rufus hopped right into her car as if he knew he was finally safe. This amazing boy is patient, gentle, and cooperative with everything we ask of him. He loves bundling up in his cozy coats for walks or outdoor time, and he’s such a good sport about wearing his little booties and getting foot balm to soothe his paws from the cold and ice. On icy days, we lay yoga mats down so he can walk safely out of his kennel. It’s adorable watching him wait politely for each mat to be placed, then hop from one to the next with the cutest determination. It’s no surprise he has a huge fan club here—everyone who meets him falls in love. Rufus loves his blanket, which he snuggles with every chance he gets. At just 2 years old, Rufus is ready to bring warmth, joy, and companionship to a loving home. He will make a wonderful addition to your family.
