If you're working for home or just playing it safe by practicing social distancing, now is a perfect time to bring a new furry family member into the fold. Email us any questions about any cats we have and we will be happy to provide any additional information you may need. If you are approved for adoption, we are now doing curbside adoptions in order to minimize contact.

About Brutus

  • Status: Adopted!
  • Species: Dog
  • General Color: Black
Brutus is the last remaining pup of a litter of 7 that was born in the shelter to a wonderful rat terrier / chihuahua mix. Brutus had an adoption all lined up, like his brothers and sisters, but existing dogs in the home played too rough with wee little Brutus, so he's available again! Brutus is almost 9 weeks old and he was the largest of his litter. He weighs around 6 pounds. His mama weighs only 11 pounds full grown, and all of his littermates are teeny tiny, so Brutus should remain a little dog. Brutus is neutered already and ready to go home with you today! Like any puppy, Brutus loves to play and snuggle! Brutus was fostered in a home-daycare so he is very used to small children and being handed. He is very outgoing, happy, and a total delight. Please note - the photos are of Brutus' brother, but Brutus looks just like him! All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, current on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, and tested negative for heartworm if over 6 months of age. All dogs have a $150 adoption fee. If you are interested in meeting or adopting this dog, please complete an adoption application at www.safehousepets.org/adopt and a volunteer will contact you promptly.

While we try to keep our animal listings up-to-date online, sometimes the age range may be labelled incorrectly. Please don't hesitate to contact us for the most up-to-date information on a particular cat.  Our cats are shown by appointment - we are a foster based rescue and so we don't have a location with set hours.

If you are interested in adopting or would like to meet our cats, please fill out our adoption application online at www.safehousepets.org/info/adoption and a volunteer will contact you promptly.
