About RUSK

Adoption Fee: $400.00
Irish Setter / Golden Retriever
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

*** AVAILABLE for adoption after DEC 1st *** 'RUSK' is a magnificently handsome, 1.5-2 yr old, 55-60 lb. Irish Setter/Golden Retriever mix who we rescued from a pound. This boy is a total love bug and can be very silly, too!! Rusk is incredibly sweet, smart, athletic boy who needs both mental and physical stimulation. He is alert and has a keen nose. Rusk needs a task/a job, and likes to be 'on the go, and we believe he has good hunting instincts. Rusk has not really been 'cat-tested' other than outdoor cats roaming which is not a good indication of how he would do with cats inside a home. When he sees them outdoors roaming, he barks like crazy. After proper acclimation he loves having an equally kind, gentle, silly and fun, submissive younger male &/or female dog companion of equal or smaller size as playmate and buddy. Rusk is very affectionate and loving, playful and can be very goofy, too. He also LOVES his toys! Rusk still eats his food very rapidly and always seems hungry, but is non-food aggressive or resource guarding. Rusk has been neutered, is current on vaccinations, on monthly heart worm preventative, crate-trained and house-trained. This rescue does not administer it's own vaccination shots. All of our rescued dogs' medical care has been administered by a licensed Veterinarian. All of our rescued dogs have been on a nutritional regime which includes high quality food and supplements (ex., pro-biotics; vitamins, etc). This is done to bolster their immune systems and overall health; the result benefits their adoptive family with a pooch who has a lustrous coat, bright shiny eyes, and happy and healthy disposition. For an adoption application, please click the email tab on the posting or email directly to [email protected] *** Please note: We are an all-volunteer organization and do not have a facility to visit. All rescues and pounds are getting inundated with daily request to adopt dogs. Please be patient with the process. All our dogs are in foster homes across the region, so pre-qualification via application must happen for a 'meet & greet'. Our adoption process is not '1st come; 1st served as pounds/shelters are, but based off qualified adopters. Once qualified, we will schedule a meet & greet. We cannot 'hold dogs' through the holidays due to foster home space requirements and overall rescue needs for other dogs in dire need of rescuing.
