Rue

My story

Hi! Rue is a 6year old doggo that I've had for roughly 4 years. She was found tied outside of a shelter with another group of dogs, so not much is known about her upbringing. She's extremely shy, noise-sensitive, and wary of people and other dogs, but is not aggressive. Once she feels comfortable around you, she'll instinctively lay back and paw you for belly rubs. If you stop giving her belly rubs, she'll keep pawing until you give her belly rubs. She is relatively independent and prefers her own space, preferring to sleep in her bed. However, she has severe separation anxiety — she begins crying and howling if I leave and will need a experienced owner and trainer who has the resources and mental capacity to train her. Unfortunately, due to my mental health, I am no longer able to care for her. For her future dog parent, I'd like to keep in contact to know how she's doing. Since there is not enough words for me to describe her, please message me if you have any questions.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Rue, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
