๐ ROO IS ADOPTABLE ๐
Husky/Shepherd x | PURE JOY | goofball | ~50lbs
Roo (Roxanne on paper) arrived at a shelter alongside two male dogs, all emaciated and neglected. She has since been able to decompress in a foster home, learn that humans are kind, she will always have food and water, and the world is absolutely wonderful.
Despite all sheโs been through, Roo has such enthusiasm for everything in life, and a spirit that lights up the room. Roo loves everyone and happy is her default! She is a medium-high energy dog who wants to adventure, play, cuddle, and be part of whatever her humans are doing. Sheโs nicknamed Roo because of her adorable, happy kangaroo-like bounces.
Little bonuses:
โ Nondestructive when home alone
โ Would thrive with another friendly, stable dog
โ Older/dog-savvy kids
โ No resource guarding observed
โ Curious and hilarious
โ Spayed, vaccinated, housetrained
โ Embarkโd (DNA + health testing)
โFlaws?โ Well, we all have them. Roo is still learning how to regulate her emotions in the car and when there is food on the counter. She is also still learning how to express her excitement at the sight of strange dogs and cats, a little less obnoxiously. Sheโs making great progress and responds beautifully to a supportive, fear-free approach.
Roo thrives on choice, freedom to run, as well as affection and shared experiences. Sheโs funloving, goofy, bonds deeply, and wants nothing more than to be โdoing lifeโ with her humans. If your family is kind, active, laughs at the little things, and is ready to embrace a wonderful family dog who lives life to the fullest, Rooโs your girl!
Please share & help this beautiful soul find her home โค๏ธ
