Meet Rusty

Rusty is an active 5 year old. He loves to be outside going for walks and playing in the outside yard. Whatever you're doing, he wants to help! He is a lean boy weighing just under 60 pounds. He came in as a stray and went unclaimed, so he is now searching for his second chance.  He knows basic commands and we believe he was a hunting dog at some time in his life, as he has his "treeing" and "pointing" stance down pretty pat. He is a little particular about some of the dogs he meets but overall gets along with most.  He'll be okay in a house with kids as long as the kids can respect boundaries. He is a big love bug! Fill out an application and come meet Rusty for the chance to get lost in his beautiful brown eyes! If you would like to to meet me, please visit our website and complete the pre-adoption application.  Once it has been processed then we can make a date to get together! All dogs are spayed/neutered, heartworm tested (if over 2 years old), vaccinated, dewormed, flea and tick treated, microchipped and more before adoption. Our adoption policies include: Application, Vet Reference, Landlord approval & Criminal Background Check. We do not do same day adoptions. We request that you call for an appointment after your application has been approved to come and visit the dog of your choice. If you have a dog currently, you should bring him/her along to meet the new dog so we can see how everyone interacts.  Please visit our website for additional information. The online application can be found at :https://hsburnettcty.org/adoption-guidelines/
