Why I need a new home

Busy schedule

My story

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

I adopted Roman from the Miami-Dade Animal Shelter. He was brought in as a stray on October 7, 2023 and I adopted him on October 15th. According to the shelter, he was about 8 months old when he was brought in, so he is currently 12 months. When we first got Roman he was very shy and stand-offish. However, within a few days he was very comfortable around my daughters and I. It took him a little longer to be comfortable around my son and other men, but he is very comfortable around men now.

Roman is an energetic dog that needs lots of exercise. I would prefer for his new owner to have a backyard for him to run around in. However, if a backyard is not available, then his new owner should take him to a dog park regularly.

Roman is also a very intelligent dog. My daughter taught him to do 'paw', which is when he gives you his paw in your hand on command. Another trick he learned is 'center', which is when he stands in between your legs, and 'down' to lay down.
