Rusty von Rhodes is a delightful 16 month old Shepherd mix. Are you looking for a snuggling buddy? Rusty has all four paws raised! This sweet guy with the caramel-colored coat is a little shy at first but adapts to his new family quickly. He loves going on his walks and meeting new friends along the way. He walks great on leash, knows his basic commands and did well strolling along next to a fellow canine walking partner. Rusty is a confident dog who loves getting out with his people and being told he's being a good boy. He enjoys all-day-long adventures in the outdoors as well as cuddle sessions at home. Around other dogs, Rusty greets everyone politely but would rather steer clear of pushy types. But when he does meet a friendly soul, he eagerly shows them his play bow. Rusty loves running and playing with his 5 furry foster siblings, and also plays with a little Chihuahua when his foster mom takes him to work. He is housebroken, sleeps through the night and, if you need someone to keep your feet warm, Rusty is your guy! Rusty is looking for a human who can meet all the requirements on his checklist: plenty of playtime, teaches lots of new things and is not stingy with the belly rubs.
