About Rufus

Meet Rufus! This adorable mixed breed is a playful puppy full of love and ready to find his forever home. He's a Lab and Beagle mix with a heart of gold and a wagging tail that's sure to brighten your day. Rufus is eager to please and will make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loyal furry friend.

Ideal Home

Rufus would thrive in a home where he can get plenty of exercise and attention. As he is a puppy, he will need continued guidance and patience as he grows.

Ongoing Health

Rufus is up-to-date on vaccinations and has been spayed/neutered. We cannot guarantee his exact breed or age, but he's in good health and ready for his new life.

Training & Support

Rufus is not yet house-trained and will need a dedicated owner to help him learn. With consistent training and positive reinforcement, he'll be a well-behaved member of the family in no time!
