Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rooney is an independent and very low maintenance kinda gal! She is pretty timid at first and likes to get a “lay of the land” before she sets up camp on your lap. She’ll let you pick her up, but until she’s comfortable, it’s definitely not her favorite.
But you want know what IS her favorite? Just lounging outside in the sun. Clearly, she may need to wait a while until she can do that in Wisconsin at this point! She knows the sit command and recognizes her name. Rooney rarely barks and would do great with apartment living. She is housetrained but will have accidents until she adjusts to her new family schedule. Rooney is crate trained, so you could work that into training her to be on your schedule. She would do wonderful in a home seeking a low-maintenance, quiet, adorable little girl!
**Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and once approved a meet and greet with the dog. Please do not apply if pets in the home are not up to date per our website requirements or are not altered.
Wisconsin applications are priority, but Illinois applications will be considered if no small children are present in the home, the home is owned, and excellent vet reference can be provided. We cannot process applications from other states.
Adoption fee is $350 unless otherwise noted above.
Puppies under 1 year of age accept application for families with children over 6 years of age for large breeds and over 8 years of age for small breeds. Since they are still puppies, dogs under 1 will require a basic obedience and puppy training class, and spay/neuter at the owners expense.
