Today's : Truss ✨
Earlier this week we introduced you to Cladding. Today we'd love for you to meet his father, Truss.
Truss is one of seven wonderful dogs we welcomed after their owner became overwhelmed caring for such a large family. Thanks to a kind neighbor who reached out for help, this sweet crew was given a second chance—and now Truss is ready to find the forever home he deserves.
Just over two years old and about 30 pounds, Truss is the biggest of the bunch. With his adorable low-rider legs, scruffy face, and soulful eyes, he's impossible not to fall in love with. He looks to be some sort of a schauzer and something to make his legs short—but whatever his breed, he's 100% lovable.
Truss has a calm, easygoing personality. He's happy to join you for neighborhood walks or an easy hike, but he's just as content curling up on the couch at the end of the day. Having lived with other dogs his entire life, he'd fit in beautifully with an existing pack, though we're confident he'd thrive as the center of someone's world too.
His gentle, friendly nature makes him a great candidate for apartment living, and he should do well with respectful children. He enjoys attention without being demanding, doesn't mind being picked up, and has the kind of steady temperament that makes him an easy companion.
If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a heart as big as his scruffy smile, Truss may be the one.
