What my friends at OHS say about me:

  • Imagine the thrill of bounding along the shoreline together, the salty breeze in your fur and the crashing waves at your heels! Or picture THIS: a sunny day in the park, a handful of toys scattered across the grass and as you glance down by your side, it's ME, the tennis ball chasing extraordinaire with a flair for retrieving- ready to embark on the ultimate game of fetch!
  • I'm Rufus, a dynamic pup who is as smart as they come, boasting an impressive range of commands including sit, come, wait, and drop. And let's not forget MY favorite part - the delicious snacks that come with each successful demonstration!
  • I'm not just a master of commands; I'm also a bundle of energy just waiting for my next adventure. Whether it's a hike through the woods or a game of fetch in the park, this pup is always ready to hit the ground running!
  • But underneath my outgoing exterior, I have a sensitive side. In new environments, I can be a bit shy and nervous, preferring to take things at my own pace. A calm and patient approach is key to helping me feel comfortable and confident in my surroundings.
  • I will thrive in an environment where my exercise needs are met and positive outlets for my energy are plentiful. From long walks to stimulating games, I'm always up for a challenge - as long as it's accompanied by plenty of love and encouragement (and maybe a pup cup?!).
  • So, if you're looking for a furry companion who's equal parts playful and smart, look no further than me, Rufus!

The type of home I'm looking for:

  • With my love for tennis balls and boundless enthusiasm for life, I'm bringing you endless joy, cuddles, and excitement!
  • When it comes to canine companions, I can be a bit pushy. I will need to meet any canine companions prior to getting adopted.
  • While I adore human company, my exuberance might be too much for younger children; maybe a home with older kids is a better fit.
