Male Dog, Belgian Shepherd Malinois
Belgian Shepherd Malinois / Terrier / Mixed
Description:
Tall and lean, Rufus is an athletic and intelligent boy with short tiger striped brindle fur, expressive ears, and a loyal heart. He is a little over a year old and he is a mix of Belgian Malinois Shepherd, Terrier and possibly Greyhound. True to the Malinois breed, he is very smart, bonds closely to his person, and is active. He likes to play with other dogs and does best with other dogs that can match his rough play style. He is housetrained and crate trained in his current foster home. Rufus takes a moment to warm up to new people and does best when he can approach you on his terms. Once he gets a chance to know you, he bonds very closely and is very affectionate. He is eager to please and loves to go to training classes. He has already learned 10 commands and would be a great dog for a person that wants a working breed. He would love to be your new running buddy and would be a great agility dog. Rufus would benefit from a more active family and one that will continue his training and socialization.

Your interest in adopting a rescued dog or puppy from Labs and More Rescue is appreciated! Please find our adoption information at www.labsandmore.org. Your adoption donation provides funding for Labs and More, a nonprofit organization which is supported solely by Volunteers and funded by donations. Good news is your adoption donation can be considered tax deductible. So much care is provided to your new dog prior to the adoption, including: spay and neuter, microchip, veterinarian visit(s), vaccinations, and other medical care as needed. Many of the dogs we rescue require extensive surgeries and care prior to adoption. Please understand we are unable to predict future behavior or medical needs of your adopted dog. We provide no guarantees regarding behavior, breed, or age of the dogs. Thank you for rescuing. Thank you for joining the Adoption Family with Labs and More Rescue.
