Australian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Council Bluffs, Iowa

Meet Rufus | Aussie Mix

Rufus is a charming Aussie mix with a heart of gold-he just needs a little time to show it. He can be shy at first and has a bit of stranger danger, but with patience and understanding, Rufus blossoms into a sweet, silly companion who loves to let his personality shine.

Rufus has done well with other dogs, especially those who are more laid back with their play style. As always, a meet-and-greet with any resident dogs is recommended to make sure everyone's a good match.

Rufus is looking for someone willing to give him a chance and a little patience-and he'll reward you with loyalty, laughs, and love. If you think Rufus could be the right fit for your home, come meet him today!
