Please go to our website for all specific information about this dog.  Our info doesn't transfer over to the adoption sites.  

Rusty came to us skin and bones from starvation.  He was a long course of treatment, fed appropriately and has just blossomed into a gorgeous and healthy young boy!  He grew quite a bit once he was healthy so we're not sure if he was younger than we thought when we got him or if it was a side effect of being starved during his growing time.  Aside from needing to be fed in a crate away from other dogs (people are fine), he's sweet, fairly active/playful and ready for his do over with a kind and loving family!  Younger dogs that like to play are best as he can be a pest to the older, sedate dogs without a playful companion.  It doesn't take him long to warm up to new people but is a bit hesitant at first is all.  
He should be in an experienced and kind home.  He deserves healthy food and someone to continue to teach him what he needs to know to be the best dog he can be.  He is crate trained, walks ok on leash but needs continued work and just some basics.  Who can give Rusty and loved and well cared for furever home?
