Rufus, the Dog of the Day
Name: Rufus
Age: Three months old
Gender: Male Breed: Yellow labrador retriever
Home: Toledo, Ohio, USA
 
   This is Rufus Morgan. I have always wanted a yellow lab named Rufus my whole life. When I went out of town to see my family in Nashville, TN, I came to find that my husband (newlyweds :) had finally made my dream come true. He is the sweetest puppy. He only got to be the baby of the family for under two weeks then my husband went and got us a baby boxer puppy. Ahhhh the fun!!

    Well since he is still quite a baby, he hasn't come fully into his own but he was a very shy sweet boy until we brought home his little brother, a Boxer named Evander. He loves to fetch and already is crate trained, sits, stays, and knows his name. Of course we think he is the smartest puppy around :)

    He loves to be near his parents or brother and is a definite cuddler. He will (as the photo shows) play himself unconscious. He plays and runs and then just plops down and is asleep immediately. He is definitely a chewer and loves to run in his yard outside chasing his ball.
