Rust – A Gentle Soul Looking for a Patient and Loving Home

Rust is a beautiful little girl who has come to us from a breeder and is still finding her feet in the world. She is a very nervous girl who takes comfort in the presence of other dogs and prefers to watch from the background rather than come forward for attention. However, despite her worries, Rust craves love and enjoys being close to her trusted humans once she feels safe.

Since arriving in foster, Rust has made progress in small but meaningful ways. She is unbothered by household noises and activities and is slowly gaining confidence. She loves snuggling up on the sofa and being near her fosterer, showing just how affectionate she wants to be. While she is still learning about toilet training and needs encouragement to go outside, she is improving each day.

Rust is not yet comfortable with a harness or lead and will freeze when one is attached. Her future adopters will need to be patient and continue to build her confidence at her own pace. A secure garden is essential for her, as she is a flight risk.

She will need a quiet, adult-only home with a kind and confident resident dog to show her the way and help her feel secure. Rust enjoys the company of other dogs, both male and female, and takes comfort in their presence. She is a gentle soul who just needs time, love, and understanding to flourish.

If you have experience with nervous dogs and the patience to help Rust blossom, she will reward you with endless love and loyalty. She is waiting for that special someone to take a chance on her.
