Ruza: The Wiggly Wonder

Hi! I’m Ruza, an 8-month-old, 30-pound mystery mix (maybe Belgian Malamute?) with more wiggles than I know what to do with! My foster family calls me their little noodle because sometimes it’s like I don’t even know how my own body works—I just bounce, flop, and squiggle my way through life.

I’m all puppy right now: playful, energetic, silly, and full of love. I adore toys (any toys—seriously, I don’t discriminate) and playing with other dogs. Kids are awesome too! Cats? Not my jam. I’m very sweet and love cuddling when I’m tired out from my zoomies.

I’m still working on my manners — sometimes I get so excited, I do a little submissive or happy-pee (oops!), but I’m learning fast. I’m making great progress with potty training, I know that my crate is my safe space, and I’m starting to get the hang of leash training. If you leave me, I might whimper for a little bit, but I settle down quickly.

What I really need is an active home with someone who’s patient and understands I’m still very much a puppy. Another playful dog would be amazing since they help me feel more confident and give me an outlet for my bouncy energy. In return, I promise to be your snuggle buddy, your adventure pal, and your biggest fan. So… ready to add a wiggly noodle to your furever fam? 

My adoption fee is $350 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip. If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/
