About Rugie

ADOPTED HAPPY BOY !!! THANK YOU TO ALL WHO INQUIRED, AND OFFERED THEIR HOME TO THIS SPECIAL BOY Rugie is about 7-8 years old (we are guessing), Bearded Collie (when his hair grows out!)/ Queensland / Terrier? - neutered, 40# of joy, love - and mischievousness! He is as adorable and silly as he looks! Rescued from life in a kennel, on a ranch. He is now LOVING the good life - adapted immediately to being part of the household, w/dog door to property. Comes and goes freely, respectful of his home, no separation anxiety! Loves romps on the trail, off leash, good recall, good with humans and other dogs he meets along the way - and friends' and neighbors' dogs. Would like doggie friends, but probably wouldn't really like dog park play. Really enjoys his trail runs and explorations -- but also likes hanging out at home being your Right-hand-Man, padding around the property with you. Playful, sometimes does the herding down dog watching thing (w/other dogs). Loves to play hide and seek, and chase/ tag w/us ! If gets too excited, does the herding dog nipping - love bites. But that is short-lived, and then he quiets right down. Plays with his ball and toys - with us or by himself. We suggest he go to a herding dog knowledgeable home, w/adults. This joyful Boy deserves to be loved and spoiled - and will repay your kindness with his devotion, bonds strongly. Enjoys being close, but can also be independent. Perfect combination! Wonderful Companion and Friend. Easy to live with, if you are active -- and include your dog in your everyday life. He shares our life and home, in Carson City and Homewood at Lake Tahoe. Likes hiking along creeks/ ponds - so he can dunk. We request an initial phone contact, application (tahoewarf.com), home visit, vet references. His adoption fee is $300 (we covered his vaccinations, neuter, one molar tooth extraction and dental / full exams / blood-urine testing / fecals / heart worm testing - all negative and Rugie is on Heartworm preventative). Adoption fee will be shared between Rescueme and the local rescue group that helped promote him. LOCAL HOMES ONLY, PLEASE: Carson City / Reno / Minden / Lake Tahoe NV and CA.
