Meet Rufus, a handsome older dog looking for a home for his golden years.
This 10-year-old dog is outgoing and loves to make new friends, according to an Animal Welfare League of Alexandria volunteer. He is eager to make a loving companion for his next family.
“He enjoys an evening constitutional, meeting new friends in the park, and a weekend road trip (with snacks),” the AWLA volunteer said. “He is ready to learn new skills for treats, chill with a good chew, and keep you company while you catch up on TV.”
Rufus has a brown merle coat and weighs about 60 pounds. He is currently staying in a foster home, and a donor has covered his adoption fees.
Potential adopters can visit the AWLA website or stop by the shelter to learn more about adopting Rufus.
Rufus can be visited during the shelter’s regular adoption hours:
- Noon to 7 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday
Noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday
