Hi, my name is Rusty!

I have been waiting 46 days for a home

Learn more about Rusty

Say hello to Rusty!
Rusty is a sweet but shy Staffy mix who is looking for a calm, understanding home where he can feel safe and reassured. He would be best suited to a family who are home more often than not, and people with patience, routine, and plenty of support as he settles in to life outside of the shelter.

Rusty would love to have indoor access so he can feel comfortable and included with his family. He’s mostly interested in his people over other dogs, so it would be best for him to go to a home where he’s your one-and-only.

If you have any kids at home, please bring them in to meet Rusty. If you think you have a place in your heart for this sweet boy, please come in and meet him today!

While I'm awaiting my forever home, I'm being fed Savour Life, who are generous partners of AWLQ!

Please Note:

Please visit our Animal Rehoming Centres during opening hours to meet our animals and adopt. No appointment is needed. For select animals, we will require an email application. Where this is the case, instructions will be specified on the animal's profile.

This website is live and updates frequently. To check if an animal is available, please check their adoption profile. If it is active and hasn't been marked as 'adopted', the animal is still here.

Please be aware there is a chance that by the time you arrive at our location, the animal you have an interest in might have been adopted, or another party might be going through the adoption process.
