Original: “She loves the soft dog beds and has discovered the SOFA!!!”
Roonie became a MAESSR girl when her breeder/owner decided it was time for Roonie to retire. The breeder contacted MAESSR and we agreed to help.
This is a sweet, sweet girl. When her person starts petting her, she is nervous but quickly decides she doesn’t want her to quit. She seems to just absorb attention like a sponge. When she was at the vet’s office for a checkup, she was loving all of the attention so much that she did not mind everything else they were doing to her.
Roonie had been living in a kennel environment; now, she is discovering the wonders of living in a house. She loves the soft dog beds and has discovered the SOFA!!! No more kennels for her! She is crate trained…and has not had any accidents in her foster home. Good girl!
When she arrived at her foster home, Roonie’s leash skills were pretty much non-existent. She is quickly learning to be more stable when out for a walk. She loves treats which has helped the training process. Once she figures out treats are involved, she is willing to play the game.
Roonie has an old injury to her right front foot from when she was a puppy. She is missing the third and fourth toes on that foot. That does not stop her from being an active girl, though!
This sweet lady is looking for a family that will love and spoil her for the rest of her life. How about it?
