Rufus is an adult male Pitbull terrier located in Atlanta, Ga. Described by LifeLine Animal Project as "an older mature guy that is just looking for a comfortable place to relax and take naps," Rufus is almost completely housebroken and would love to have a routine. This Georgia peach is a lover and gets along well with people, but not other dogs or cats, so Rufus would have to be the only fur-child in your home.
LifeLine is a non-profit "working on collaborative solutions to end pet overpopulation and stop the euthanasia of healthy and treatable dogs and cats in metro Atlanta animal shelters," according to PetFinder. "L.A.P.'s focus is to promote the adoption of homeless pets and to initiate and support effective spay and neuter programs. The guiding principle behind all L.A.P. programs is to foster cooperation between the more than 150 companion animal rescue groups, humane societies and county animal control agencies serving greater Atlanta."
