Meet Rubble, a little treasure waiting to be discovered! This handsome boy may be a bit shy when you first meet him, especially in new places or around unfamiliar people, but give him a little time and encouragement and his sweet, friendly personality starts to shine through. Rubble is looking for a patient family who will let him take things at his own pace and help him build confidence as he explores the world. Think of him as a hidden gem, you just have to give him a chance to sparkle! Once he knows you're part of his crew, Rubble is happy to show you what a wonderful companion he can be.
