Rufus watch my video!

My name is Rufus. I am one and a half years old and weigh approximately 60 to 65 lb. I am fostered in Sparta, North Carolina but easy, affordable transportation is available. was surrendered to the rescue because my owner can no longer take care of me. I am a sweet, loving boy! I get along well with other dogs and I am submissive to them. I have not been around cats. I'm good with children and I have spent plenty of time with a four-year-old. I loved playing with him! I am calm and laid back in the house but I love to run and play when I go outside. Two of my favorite games are tug-of-war, where you do the tugging, and chase. I love to be chased by another dog or by my people when I have a toy in my mouth. In the evening I like snuggling up with my person on the sofa. She lets me sleep in the bed with her, which I love! I have a happy disposition and greet everyone with a wagging tail. I do not get in the trash or counter surf. I do not try the dart out of the door when it is open. I am in a 5 ft fence and have never even thought about trying to get out of it. I ride well in the car and walk okay on a leash. My previous owner says I usually walk right beside her, but as you can see my video, I got distracted by some blowing leaves and new smells. I know the commands no, come, sit, wait, and I'm learning to shake. A great companion and I'm waiting waiting to get into my new forever home!
