Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). ***Rudolph is currently located at our rescue in Georgia but also available for adoption in the New Jersey and surrounding areas. If interested in adopting Rudoplh, please submit an application at socorescue.co. A team member will contact you ASAP if your app is approved to adopt Rudolph.*** Rudolph originally came to SoCo as a very young puppy after being found discarded, with his eight siblings, in a box along a lonely stretch of road. Rudolph is a fun, active and playful boy who also enjoys playing with other dogs. He's loves attention and is affectionate. He is sometimes nervous when meeting new people but if you ignore him and give him time to warm up, he be your best buddy ever! Rudolph was briefly adopted by a family new to dogs with young children. Unfortunately, he was not a good fit and had to come back to SoCo. It's possible that the level of energy unsettling to Rudolph. He also was not neutered. Since being back at the rescue, he has been neutered and the staff say he is a friendly fellow. He has been kenneled with other dogs and plays well with others! We are thinking that Rudy would do better in a home without small children and an experienced dog owner. He is food motivated and seems to learn quickly. With the right person, he will be a wonderful companion. He could be a good second dog but a meet and greet would be important to establish compatibility. Rudolph has been neutered, is up to date on all of his annual vaccinations, been de-wormed and kept on his monthly preventatives. He did display very good house training ability at his former home but may need a refresher course once adopted. A microchip will accompany his adoption. If interested in adopting Rudolph, please submit an application at socorescue (no need to register or login).
