My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello
My name is Roo and my estimated age is one to two years old.
My story starts being dumped in a very rural wooded area on one of the coldest nights of the year. We wondered up to a farm and the people took us in until the rescue could pick us up.
I am only 11 pounds but have very long legs. I could be a min pin mix. Since we were dumped nobody knows my family history. My foster mom says I can prance with my long legs. I am tough as nails for a little dog, not scared of much and don’t mind full out wrestling a 60-pound dog. I was given the name “Roo” because I bounce around like a kangaroo! I have energy like the energizer bunny , but don’t mind a cuddle in your lap. I really love people , even after being chucked out in the cold.
I will sleep in a crate , dog bed or in the big bed with you. I am learning how yummy fresh vegies like carrots taste. I will chase a ball or play with a squeaky toy. Not only am I something to love , but I am also built in entertainment guaranteed to make you laugh. You will have to have patience on the whole “potty” thing with me. I like the doggie door idea ,especially when it warms up. I am learning to use puppy pads at night but still get so excited and forget and potty on the floor. I am getting better by the day!
I was spayed last week , microchipped, had all my vaccinations and tested negative for heartworms. If you need a little fun in your life with 4 legs , I am your girl!
My adoption fee covers a health certificate to travel and the transport cost from Tennessee.
