Notes from Peace 4 Paws Inc.

Meet Rune, a 2-year-old male pit bull terrier mix with a gentle heart and a resilient spirit. He is brown and white, weighs about 60 pounds, and has a sturdy, lovable presence that quickly grows on you.

Rune can be timid when he first meets new people or enters new spaces, but once he feels safe, his true personality shines through. He becomes a happy-go-lucky love bug who enjoys affection, curiosity-driven exploring, and especially his cookies. He loves being near his people and soaking up attention at his own comfortable pace.

Rune has a neurological condition that can occasionally cause him to lose his balance and flop to the floor. It may look surprising at first, but Rune takes it in stride. He pops right back up and carries on with his adventure, undeterred and upbeat. His plucky attitude and determination are part of what make him so special.

Rune would do best with a patient, understanding adopter who can offer him kindness, consistency, and a soft spot to land. In return, he offers loyalty, sweetness, and a whole lot of heart. If you are looking for a resilient companion with a gentle soul and an affectionate nature, Rune may be the perfect match.

To apply, go to www.peace4paws.org/adoption-application (please use a computer or laptop).
