In the shelter’s words
Meet Ruger! Ruger is a handsome 10-year-old German Shepherd looking for a loving home to spend his golden years! ❤️ Don’t let his age fool you — Ruger is still very playful and has plenty of personality and love to give. Ruger does have pannus , an eye condition commonly seen in German Shepherds. Thankfully, it can be managed with eye drops and doggie goggles , and Ruger doesn’t let it stop him from enjoying life! This sweet senior deserves a family who will give him all the love, comfort, and adventures he deserves. If you have room in your heart and home for a handsome older gentleman, Ruger may be the perfect addition to your family! ❤️ Give Ruger the golden years he deserves! This animal is up to date on all shots, dewormed, and spayed/neutered. They have been heartworm tested (negative) and on prevention. The adoption fee is $275.00 If you are interested in adopting this pet please fill out an application. http://www.ajssearchandrescue.org/adoption-application
