Ruger Needs a Foster or Adopter to Secure His Ride to Wisconsin
Ruger is currently in a kill shelter in Alabama and needs a FOSTER or ADOPTER to secure his spot on transport to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog Rescue. His transport date is still TBD, but we are hoping to bring him to Wisconsin once he has a committed home waiting for him.
Meet Ruger
Ruger is a 3-year-old German Shepherd mix and an absolute gentle giant. Sweet, docile, and just a little goofy, Ruger is the kind of dog who seems to love everyone he meets.
Ruger is wonderful with dogs of all sizes and is very gentle with children. He is smart, playful, affectionate, and loves being around people. When tested with cats, Ruger was uninterested in them, making him a potentially great fit for a variety of homes.
Ruger has a calm, easygoing personality but still enjoys playtime and spending time with his people. His sweet and loving nature makes him an especially lovable guy who would make a wonderful companion.

Gender: Male, neutered
Weight: 75lbs
Breed: German Shepherd mix
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Potty Trained: Unsure

4.) Final Decision: By the end of the FTA period, please let us know your final decision to adopt or return the dog to our rescue.
5.) Home Visit: After the adoption process we conduct a home visit either in person or via zoom meeting to ensure that everything is going well with the transition and to answer any final questions you may have.
6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse $125 for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. We recommend going to HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI for the most affordable option. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, that works too!
