My story

Breed - beagle/hound Weight - 35 lbs Estimated Age - 5 years old please go to this link to see Rufus in action: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DJPXFIfONNG/?igsh=MTg3dXh0YjhnM3djOQ== If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail any questions to: loislht@gmail.com PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ LOCATION: Foster ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Lois ADOPTION FEE: $475. This fee INCLUDES spay/neuter and microchip. **Ask me about our many adoption benefits that include free exams, pet insurance, training and other discounts! ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 35 lbs. KNOWN WITH DOGS: Rufus loves other dogs. He is looking for a home with a confident dog companion. KNOWN WITH CATS: If you need that information, let us know! KNOWN WITH KIDS: Rufus is a little shy but very gentle so he will be happiest with respectful kids KNOWN COMMANDS: He is learning some commands. KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING &/OR CRATING: He is house and crate trained KNOWN LIKES: Rufus loves other dogs, treats and he also gentle pets. Ice cream with dog treat toppers are his favorite!! KNOWN DISLIKES: loud noises ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Rufus is a sweet 5-year-old beagle mix boy who is quiet and shy. He is crate trained and house trained. He loves to explore his foster’s backyard and follow the resident dogs around. Rufus is scared of loud noises so he would do best living in a quiet neighborhood. He would like a dog pal to improve his confidence. Rufus would also like a fenced yard or someone committed to taking him on several walks a day to stretch his long legs. He would make a great hiking buddy! He is very polite and non-destructive. He is non-reactive to other dogs and gets along great with people of all ages once he earns your trust. If you are looking for a low-key, low-maintenance, loving and loyal companion, then Rufus is your boy!
