Rufus is an 8 week old, male, Staffy x puppy. Rufus is a sweet little darling who loves to play.

Rufus will grow up to be a small to medium sized dog. He is learning basic commands such as sit for meals, sit, stay and come, but he’d love to do more training with his new family. We always recommend puppy-training classes to give your new family member the best start in life. All dogs and puppies need plenty of affection, exercise, and training.

Rufus is living in a home with both indoor and outdoor access at all times in his current home and gets along well 2 other dogs in home. Rufus has two young children to play with and is often found hiding with them in the cubby house. He prefers to be at the feet of his foster family whilist sitting watching TV and generally enjoys the company of both his foster people and his companion dogs.
