Welcome to Rescues That Rock! In partnership with CARE Animal Rescue and Springfield’s rock station, Q102, we’re on a mission to help find forever homes for some amazing dogs who truly “rock!” Each week, we’ll feature a special dog available for adoption right here on our website and across our social media channels.

Even if adoption isn’t an option right now, you can still help us make a difference. By sharing these profiles on your social media pages, you’re spreading the word and helping these wonderful dogs get noticed—and closer to finding their perfect family. Together, let’s help these dogs find the loving homes they deserve!

Hi! I’m Rusty, a 6-month-young, energetic, golden retriever mix with a heart full of love.

My days are filled with play, from chasing my tail to playing fetch with my favorite squeaky toy. I have a sweet disposition and love nothing more than cuddling up for a good nap after a fun day. I have a knack for making people smile with my playful antics and sweet nature. I’m just a pup looking for a family to share my love and energy with. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion, I’m your guy!
