My Story
Meet Rufus, a charming 1 year and 8-month-old Shih Tzu / Yorkie mix who weighs 13 pounds. Rufus has had a bit of a bumpy start in life; he was adopted from Camo as a puppy but, sadly, was brought back after a year. Now, he’s looking for a forever home where he can truly thrive. Rufus is initially shy around strangers and can sometimes be a bit nippy, but once he warms up and trusts you, he becomes incredibly loyal and affectionate. Rufus has a high prey drive, especially when it comes to small animals, but he usually gets along well with other dogs, making him a potential candidate for a multi-dog household. Currently, Rufus is working on his potty training and leash training. He needs a consistent schedule and diligent effort to master these skills. His new family will need to be patient and committed to helping him improve in these areas. One of Rufus’s unique and endearing traits is his love for parkour. He enjoys climbing and jumping around the house, so a home that allows him to explore his agility by climbing on furniture would be perfect for him. This playful activity helps keep him mentally and physically stimulated. Rufus would thrive best in an adult-only home with low foot traffic, as he has a tendency to door dart. His ideal home would be one that understands his quirks and is willing to provide the structure and love he needs.
