Rusty

My story

Rusty (aka Jingle) is an adorable hound/boxer mix puppy, born on 10/6/2025, and he’s ready to jingle his way right into your heart! This sweet boy had a rough start—he and his littermates were sadly dumped on the side of the road. Their mom, a feral hound mix with what appeared to be boxer, was caught and is safe, but dad remains a mystery. What we do know? Rusty is pure puppy magic. Rusty is an affectionate, playful, and gentle bundle of joy with a heart as big as the night sky. He’s a friendly, curious little guy who loves exploring his surroundings, meeting new people, and soaking up all the love he can get. With his happy-go-lucky personality and sweet nature, Rusty is sure to bring sparkle, laughter, and warmth to his forever home. Rusty will thrive with: - Daily playtime and exercise to burn off puppy energy - Positive training and mental enrichment—he’s smart and eager to learn - A patient, committed family ready for typical puppy antics like chewing, zoomies, and ongoing house-training - Lots of love and companionship, because boxers and hound mixes are known for forming strong bonds with their people Rusty is still a baby, which means he’ll need guidance, structure, and continued socialization as he grows into the amazing dog he’s meant to be. In return, he’ll give you endless affection, loyalty, and joy. This little star is ready to shoot into your life and make it brighter.
