This is Rusty and he is 7 years old. His owner was a senior citizen who brought him to the vet to have him put down because he had fleas and was losing his hair due to the flea allergies. The vet refused and told the man to take Rusty to the shelter in hopes of finding someone who would adopt him. The man did that and cried when he left him. There was little hope for Rusty because the shelter is too full and owner turn ins are the first to be put down to make room for the strays. When we found out about Rusty we were there within the day to pick him up. Soon after that Rusty found the home and family that would be his forever. Rusty’s mom and dad recently lost their previous dog and had lots of love to give. They are so happy to have another golden to love and care for and Rusty couldn’t be happier to be their forever boy!
