Oh — hi! Rusty here.
I might gently herd your kids, your guests, and the vacuum — it's a love language.
My notes call me gentle and a little shy — I warm up fast once I trust you, though.
I'm a youngster — a little goofy, very teachable, and absolutely ready to grow up beside someone wonderful.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I'm a Seattle local, just waiting on the right person.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
Who knows — by Thanksgiving I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.
Thanks for spending a minute with me. I'll be right here, tail ready, hoping it's you. — Rusty

About Rusty
Rusty is an 1.8-year-old Australian Cattle Dog mix who was found as a stray in Texas and is being transported to the Seattle area for adoption. She is bright, smart, and curious, with a loving temperament and a strong preference for outdoor time and yard exploration. Rusty is shy and still building confidence in new environments, but she learns quickly and responds well to positive experiences like dog-friendly stores and playtime with other dogs. She would do best in a home with a fenced yard, another canine companion, and experienced owners who can support her continued confidence building.
Rusty is listed by Dog Gone Seattle Rescue in Seattle, WA. The rescue handles the adoption — Pawsada helps the right family discover Rusty.
