Rufus is a FUN little guy! He and my other two small dogs (both males) play constantly. He's VERY food motivated, and really likes TRAINING! He learned a 'place' command, and now goes to his spot when I'm cooking and waits for rewards. He uses a dog door and goes potty outside. Rufus sleeps in a crate, and is crated with a chew bone when we are not home. We don't have cats, but my sense is he wouldn't try to mess with them. He's a good watch dog - barks when he hears something out-of-the-ordinary - but can be shushed with a 'thank you!' and a treat. Because he's a small dog, we recommend a home with older children who can handle him respectfully and gently. Once Rufus gets to know you and feels safe, he likes to be held and cuddled, so don't be put off when you meet him that he doesn't climb right up into your lap. Like many small dogs he needs to get to know you a little before going to that next level.
