My story

Meet Rucker; A beautiful Border Collie. He's one of the sweetest and smartest dogs you will meet. Rucker we believe had an untreated injury at one time. (He's been evaluated by top Neurologist Vets in Chattanooga) The injury left him with unsteady/unsure back legs. However, don't tell this guy he can't do something. He loves being a part of the family and enjoying different activities. His foster Mom says he's the sweetest, most loving and kindest dog she's ever fostered. Rucker is waiting for the perfect family who will love him with his imperfect walk. He's healthy, doesn't require meds, only lots of love! Rucker is excellent with cats, dogs, and people. He is housebroken, not a barker and very well behaved. Favorite things are car rides, pup cups, being around people and all the pets and love you can give. This guy is super happy and his tail never stops wagging. A home with no steps and with a fenced yard is ideal for this inquisitive, playful pup. Until he can find his forever home, he will be patiently waiting on his forever home with his foster mom.To adopt this pet, please go to hsnwga.org, 'Adoption' then 'Application for Adoption', to complete an online application to be preapproved. Due to the high volume of applications received, our Adoption Coordinator will only contact the applicant that best meets the needs of the pet.

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