Rusty is new to rescue but is settling in beautifully, showing his adaptable and affectionate nature.
Rusty is a peaceful soul who doesn’t mind sharing his space with cats and finds joy in the presence of children. His gentle temperament means he won’t vie for attention, but his expressive eyes will draw you in and melt your heart. It’s impossible not to feel loved when Rusty looks your way.
A creature of habit, Rusty appreciates a steady routine and expects his breakfast and lunch at consistent times. He is excellent during grooming sessions, sporting a fresh puppy cut that complements his endearing personality.
