Kentucky's Litter (2023)
Meet Russel
(adopted)
The dad
Words that come to mind when describing our Russel…handsome, loyal, energetic, smart, sweet, soft.
When we say sweet and soft, we offer this explanation…Russel was transported from Texas to Florida, transferred to us humans, and immediately allowed us to care for his puppies and his mate, Rye
Breed
mixed
Sex
male
Age
approx. 2 years
Weight
39 lbs
Colors
A soft white body, with light, rust-colored splashes throughout. And, light auburn patches around his eyes and ears.
From Day 1, when we would approach Russel, he’d roll over and offer us his belly. After several weeks in our care, he continues to do so. He's also allowed us to bathe him, cut his nails, and blowdry him - always compliant and calm.
Russel and his family have spent every weekday training with the experts at Doglando; he has learned so much in a short time.
His potential shines through, and his skills at raising his puppies are amazing. A quote from one of our volunteers: "Papa Russell roamed the yard and gently corrected his children from time to time, which I could watch all night. It’s absolutely fascinating to watch how he muzzles them and uses different tones and they completely submit and lay down ... all while never breaking eye contact."
