Ruben

URGENT – RUBEN NEEDS A RESCUE NOW!

Time is running out for Ruben. This beautiful 3½-year-old Boxer is sitting in a Bundaberg (QLD) pound with very limited time to find a rescue. Resue only.

Ruben is there through no fault of his own. Because he isn’t suitable to live with other dogs, he is rescue only – but that doesn’t make him any less deserving of a loving home.

Ruben is everything people love about Boxers.

He is incredibly loyal and adores his people. He lives for cuddles and genuinely believes he’s a lap dog! One minute he’ll be curled up beside you, and the next you’ll find him lying upside down, happily sunbaking without a care in the world.

He’s a fun-loving boy with plenty of Boxer enthusiasm. He loves to play, stretch his legs on a good run, and then settle in with his family. Ruben is also very gentle with children, although his excitement can sometimes get the better of him, so he just needs the occasional reminder to stay calm.

Ruben’s ideal home:
• Only dog – means no other dogs in the home
• Active family who will include him in their lives
• Children are fine, but no toddlers due to his playful enthusiasm
• Plenty of love, cuddles, and a comfy spot on the couch

Please don’t let Ruben become another statistic. He has so much life, love, and loyalty left to give, but he desperately needs someone to give him that chance.

*Please specify “Ruben” in the name field for the specific foster question*
