Rusty, Calm and Cuddly~Adopted

Rusty is a gorgeous fluffy two year-old  red Border Collie.  He’s everything a great dog should be, intelligent, affectionate, and playful.  He is good with cats, plays with other dogs, great with kids and is very gentle.  What Holly really loves is the way he rides in the car!

Rusty and his transport buddies, Casey Rose and Fonzie all came from Alabama where they were fostered by Deb Gaylord.    Rusty was pulled from a kill shelter, heartworm positive.  Dale Parrent sponsored his treatments, and he is heartworm negative!  Thank you Dale!

Rusty and his pals were flown to us by Jeff Bennett, a volunteer for Pilots-n-Paws.  All three of the dogs have awesome temperaments, relaxed, calm, and happy to meet everyone!

Rusty is being fostered in the Windermere area, and updates will be coming soon!  In the meantime, you can view his photo album on Facebook.  If you are interested in Adopting Rusty, please review “How to Adopt From Us” and email your information to us at thedogliberator@gmail.com

Update:  Melinda, Rusy’s foster is keeping Rusty!  She writes:

Ok, drumroll…

We want to adopt him 🙂 He is an absolutely lovely dog, and a perfect companion for our dynamo Taz. They are happily wrestling on the floor in front of me as I write this!

I am entirely confident that we will quickly resolve the marking behavior. In fact, Taz is helping with that already by herding him around the house and preventing any opportunity for Rusty to mark! I’ll be checking at Walmart today for the spray, Petsmart didn’t have anything. I’ll be watching him like a hawk and providing well timed corrections as you both suggested. Thank you for your wisdom in dealing with this issue!

This week I’ll be getting him checked out by my vet, and professionally groomed. Can’t wait to see how gorgeous he’ll look! I promise to send before and after photos 🙂
