My story

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

Kangaroo is a ridiculously happy 3 year old chihuahua/terrier mix that was found as stray on a cold winter day. Kangaroo lives up to her name! She's a jumping bean of a dog that has energy galore so if you're looking for a lazy lap dog, Roo just isn't the dog for you. Kangaroo is all fun and games and she'll keep you moving and laughing! She is full of spunk and personality. She would be thrilled to be your jogging partner, fetch-player, or running buddy! Kangaroo needs playtime and exercise. Unfortunately, she needs to be an only pet and also needs a home with no kids, due to becoming mouthy occasionally while playing. Kangaroo seriously doesn't have a mean bone in her little body though, so she doesn't mean any harm. Kangaroo is housebroken and she's had training and will sit, lay down, and take treats gently. She bonds with you quickly and is so sweet and affectionate once she gets her jumpies out. She will bring so much joy to your life if you give her a chance! Call 609-693-1900 or email: office@ahsppz.org for an application. File#70076 1/11/24
