Adopt a Miniature Pinscher / Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat)
RUFUS GUFUS the Dog needs a home
Greetings from RUFUS GUFUS! I am just a little guy who had a rough encounter with a big dog .... yep, I came out of it OK but now have a slight impairment that limits me to very short walks. But I am so tiny, wouldn't you just want to cuddle and carry me everywhere anyhow? Please also note, I am quite the fashionista and love to dress up in sweaters and t-shirts and love to burrow under the covers to keep my little body warm! The vet believes I am about 3 years old, a sweet, gentle fellow who wants to have my own human to love.
After taking care of me, the vet also made sure I was neutered, vaccinated and microchipped and ready for my forever home. If that is with you, please complete an online application at www.helpadogsmile.org and my foster mom will give you the full scoop on my special needs. Although I don't realize I have 'special needs', due to my limited walking ability, my foster mom says I need a quiet home with no more than one other small, gentle dog as I could easily be knocked down by a bigger dog or playful kitties. I cannot navigate stairs and no pools, please, as I would not survive a fall in a pool. I have learned to go up and down the one step from the house to the patio and walk to the yard for potty breaks! I also like to sniff the flowers in the yard and sometimes take little sunbathing breaks outside.
My adoption fee of $175 helps with medical expenses of the rescue. Thank you for looking at my photos and maybe choosing me to be your next best friend! My foster mom says I truly am a treasure!!
