Personality: Rubeus is a reserved pup who really needs confidence building. After spending his life in a cage, used over + over for breeding, he is looking for a loving home that will teach him that the world is a good, loving place. Rubeus wants to be social + loved but is still learning how.

Why she/he was brought to the rescue: WISE recently rescued a group of dogs who were throw aways from an Amish breeding puppy mill. When the “breeder” decided that the dogs were no longer needed for breeding, he planned to euthanize them. WISE and other rescues stepped up to rescue them.
