Rufus Lucas

My story

Meet Rufus Lucas! This sweet boy is as smart as he is handsome. He is about one and a half years old and weighs about 65 pounds. We aren’t exactly sure what breed mix he is, we think maybe a shepherd and some pit bull terrier, but do we know he’s super cute! He does great on a leash and knows some basic commands like sit, crate, and he knows how to shake your hand! He loves all other doggy and human friends of all ages, but would do best in a cat free home. Interested in becoming a forever home for Rufus? Fill out our online adoption application: http://www.friendswithfourpaws.org/adoption-form.html This is the first step in our process, and we don't go any further without an application. Find more adoptable pets, news and information on Instagram @friendswithfourpaws or our Facebook page Friends with Four Paws. We put a lot of time and energy into processing our adoptions to find our babies the best fit home for them and you. Please do not submit an application if you are not serious about adopting Rufus. We are so excited to work with you to find you a new forever friend, and Rufus the perfect forever home, and appreciate you working with us. For immediate consideration, please attach your application to the initial inquiry to help us expedite the process. Our adoption fee is $525. This includes their spay/neuter surgery, full (age appropriate) vaccinations, microchip insertion and registration, deworming, heartworm testing and prevention, flea and tick prevention and travel expenses. All of our dogs are rescued from local shelters and the general public. Each dog is then placed in a foster home where he/she is kept for quarantine, to ensure if the dog gets sick it can receive proper treatment. We have foster homes in the NJ/NY area waiting to receive their fosters. Once an animal has received an application or there's an adopter interested, we make arrangements for transport. If a dog is already in foster care in NYC/NJ, an adopter will be put in touch with the foster home AFTER an application is being processed. Thank you in advance for your patience with our process and for making adoption YOUR option!

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