Pet of the Day: Ruffus!

Mar 25, 2014

Our pet of the day today is RUFFUS! Ruffus is a cute 4-year-old Lhasa Apso mix. Although he seems a bit shy when you first meet him, Ruffus warms up to anyone very quickly! Once he is out and about he is a quiet dog and quite cuddly too! Ruffus was abandoned, along with Summer, before being brought into our shelter. He is already house broken, knows simple commands and listens when his name is called. He would make a great fit to any home, kids or no kids, animals or no animals. We always recommend a meet and greet if you do have current Forever Family members. Ruffus does require regular grooming, but is otherwise a low maintenance guy! If Ruffus is the missing link to your Forever Home please stop by the PHS from 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. between Monday and Saturday.
