Volunteer Opportunities

Meet Rusty!
Rusty may be small, but he’s packed with personality. At about 4 years old and a perfect 10 pounds, this little guy is on the lookout for a forever home that appreciates both his spunky side and his snuggly heart.
Rusty has had all his proper vet care: he’s neutered, up to date on his rabies shot, and recently got his other vaccines and a NexGard to help him feel his best. He’s working through a little skin issue, but the good news is that his hair is already growing back and he’s well on the mend.
One thing Rusty absolutely prides himself on? Keeping his kennel spotless. This boy believes in good manners! When you first meet him, he’s got a bit of feisty sparkle—pretty typical for a tiny dog with a big opinion—but once he decides you’re part of his circle, he melts into the sweetest love bug around.
Rusty would thrive in a calmer home, ideally with older kids who understand his need for a thoughtful, gentle intro. Give him a little patience, and he’ll reward you with loyalty, charm, and all the cuddles you can handle.
If you’re looking for a fun-sized friend with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Rusty might be your guy! Let him wiggle his way into your family and brighten your days.
