Snuggling pup looking for a quiet home
Roo is a 5-year-old pit mix who loves to play and snuggle. She’s looking for a home with an active adult, no children, and a predictable routine.
Roo is one of the snuggliest dogs you’ll ever meet. She takes a little while to warm up to new people, but once she does, she’ll love you without reserve. She also loves to play and responds very well to positive reinforcement training.
Roo would thrive with someone who can give her the structure, activity, and affection she loves.
