My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I'm Roo, and I'm hoping to bounce my way right into your heart (and lap)! I'm a young lad and full of enthusiasm for life. I have an absolute blast zooming around with other dogs. I think toys are literally the best thing EVER invented, and I will make you chuckle while I'm bouncing around, flinging them in the air just to pounce on them again. I love all toys, but toys that squeak are especially stupendous! I have a hard time containing my baby kangaroo bounces and wiggles at times, but I know if I have outlets for zoomies and someone who can take some time to work with me, my very own Christopher Robin perhaps, I'll turn into one heckin' good doggo! Ask to play with me today!
