Rusty came to us a couple of weeks ago-- very shut down and terrified. He was at a backyard breeder's house, left without human interaction and affection.

In a few short weeks, he has settled in and LOVES his new freedom, yummy food, and unlimited LOVIN'!

He loves to sit in the swing and glue to me for pettings!

He is just over a year old and ready to start the next stage in his journey.

He will require a patient, loving home- that will give him time to adjust to the ultimate spoiled home life!!!

I feel he'd be best in a home with another dog.

He is a small, adorable AKC boxer-- Rusty is 47-50 lbs.

To meet Rusty, please email me at TheLongWayHomeRescue@gmail.com. The volunteers at our Adoption Center look forward to talking with you! Please be patient with response time. We will be email you back as soon as we can, with a Zoom appointment time to meet your family and pets!
