Foster Update: Rusty has a lot of personality. He is super sweet and a happy dog. He has settled into our home very nicely and adapted to our routine. He follows us around.
He is great with people. He interacts well with our other 2 older dogs, and he gets along with our 2 cats. He loves stuffed animals and any kind of treats. He is potty trained, but not leash trained yet, and doesn’t seem to have a big prey drive.
When we first started fostering Rusty, he had a little separation anxiety, but now he does fine in the house when we leave. We would prefer to leave him in the yard when we leave, but I am afraid he will try to get out of the yard, so we keep all our animals inside.
Rusty is doing awesomely at our house. He will make a great family pet. Our 2 older dogs do not play much. But he likes to play with younger dogs.
Update 12/8
From Rusty’s foster:
he is ready to go to his forever home when it’s available! He’s such a sweet boy! He’s great with cats, and he would do so well if there was another dog for him to play with. He loves to play with other dogs and our dogs are old and grouchy.
He’s good on his leash/harness also.
He’s healthy with a great appetite!
Before leaving Cortez Rescue, all dogs will be given a full medical assessment to ensure optimum health, current on vaccinations, and desexed. All dogs are microchipped before leaving Mexico.
