The Dubuque Regional Humane Society is featuring Rambo, a 2-year-old male dog, as their latest Pet of the Week. Rambo is an active and friendly pup who loves to play fetch and go for walks. The shelter is highlighting Rambo in hopes of finding him a forever home, and his adoption fee has been sponsored down to just $50.

Why it matters

The Dubuque Regional Humane Society works to connect pets in need with loving families through their adoption program. Highlighting adoptable animals like Rambo helps raise awareness and get these pets into permanent homes.

The details

Rambo is described as having a big personality and lots of energy. He does well meeting other dogs at the shelter and loves spending time with people. While he can be reactive in his kennel, staff say his friendly nature shines through once he's out of the kennel. The shelter is encouraging potential adopters to not let that deter them from meeting Rambo.

• Rambo is the current Pet of the Week at the Dubuque Regional Humane Society.

What’s next

Potential adopters can visit the Dubuque Regional Humane Society to meet Rambo and learn more about adopting him. The shelter's Be Mine, DRHS Valentine fundraiser is also happening all month, where people can purchase handmade valentines to support the animals.
