More: Rudie is our granddog and is a rescue from Richmond VA. His human dad, our son, moved to Nashville TN and we followed to Ooltewah TN not long after. Because he is a “bully breed”, finding affordable housing that would accept this teddy bear was difficult for our son. We are retired and have gladly taken guardianship of our buddy. We take him everywhere with us. If a place doesn’t accept dogs, we don’t stay there. Rudie is definitely “cover boy” material.
