Rusty, papillon

Rusty is a darling male papillon dog being cared for at Papillon Pals Rescue, Inc.

Rusty is the life of the party, and he'll get along great with cats and dogs. His vaccinations are up to date, and he's neutered.

From Rusty's current caretaker:

Rusty is a sweet little 14 year old senior that came to us as an owner surrender due to her health. He is neutered, chipped, up-to-date on his shots and has recently had a dental. Sadly, all of his teeth had to be removed. He is a little shadow and just loves to be near you. We would say he has a little separation anxiety as he whimpers if he can't get to you.

Oso has had all her shots.

Here's what Oso's friends at Akita Rescue Society of Florida think of her:

Grizzly, Great Dane and American bulldog mix

Grizzly is a handsome male Great Dane and American bulldog mix in the care of Pet Rescue North Inc.

Grizzly is nothing if not a family dog, and children will love him.

From Grizzly's current caretaker:

Grizzly—This beautiful boy is 1.5 years old and fully vetted. He is leash trained, crate trained and knows several commands. Sit, come, shake and crate. He is very well mannered with his human. He has also lived with children. However, he does not do well with other male dogs and can be food aggressive. He does well with females, needless to say.
