Rufus (A565681) is a striking 4-year-old brindle boy with long houndy lines, soulful eyes, and a nose that never stops working. ??



Built like a classic hound, Rufus has big floppy ears, a long lean body, and a tail that curls sweetly at the tip. His brindle coat with bright white markings — long white socks in the front and little “toe socks” in the back — makes him truly eye-catching.



Rufus walks nicely on leash and takes treats like a true gentleman. He isn’t much into toys, but don’t let that fool you — this boy is busy doing what he loves best: sniffing. In the yard his nose stayed glued to the ground like he was tracking a trail, which makes him a dream for someone who enjoys long, exploratory walks or scent-work type activities.



He confidently trotted right up the ramp and happily sat for a treat, showing he’s both food-motivated and willing to work with you. Rufus is easygoing, curious, and content to explore the world at his own thoughtful pace.



If you’re looking for a handsome, well-mannered companion who will happily sniff his way through life by your side, Rufus is your guy. ??

Meet Rufus — professional good boy, part-time goofball, full-time heart-stealer

Rufus is in the gentle and dainty playgroup, but don’t let that fool you — he’s a happy, excitable guy around people who loves getting outside to stretch his legs and zoom around. Treats? Yes please. He proudly knows “sit” and will happily perform in exchange for snacks.

He’ll chase toys with great enthusiasm… until he suddenly remembers there are more interesting things to sniff. Speaking of talent, Rufus even tried his paw at agility training and finished with a high jump grand finale — 10/10 performance, no notes.

When something smells extra tasty, Rufus does the cutest little chomps you’ve ever seen, and he’s always ready to seal the deal with kisses and friendliness.

If you’re looking for a sweet, silly pup who brings joy, treats, and occasional air-time, Rufus is ready to jump straight into your heart
