About Rufus

Adoption Fee: $225
Great Pyrenees / Anatolian Shepherd
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Meet Rufus This handsome young dog was surrendered when his owner could not take him when he moved. He is being fostered until we can find him his forever home. We hope that is soon, as Rufus is an amazing boy. Rufus is a two-year-old Great Pyrenees mix. He is a handsome, handsome boy with a gorgeous cream- colored coat with brown/black markings. He weighs 74 lbs. He is as gentle as a lamb. He is good with other dogs and kids. We tested him briefly with kitties. He was not overly curious, but we didn't want to push it too much when we first met him. He is shy with strangers when he first meets them, but quickly warms up with gentle reassurance. He is not aggressive with food or toys. He has not been a working dog and is comfortable in a home. He is nearly house-trained but may need some remedial training and consistency. He spends his nights in a crate but would probably appreciate being with his hoomans. Rufus will need a fenced yard to keep him safe. He is such a great young dog. He has been well taken care of and has been kept current on his basic vetting. If you are looking for a sweet, gentle, loving, affectionate young dog to welcome to your home, Rufus is incredible.
