Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Meet Fire 3-year-old Rottweiler • Arriving from Texas late April Fire is a handsome, sweet-hearted Rottweiler who’s ready to light up your life! This friendly boy is joining us from Texas at the end of April, and he’s already winning hearts wherever he goes. Fire is incredibly people-oriented and loves being right by your side. He’s a true love-bug who happily solicits pets, leans in for affection, and never turns down a good belly rub. His loose, wiggly body and happy demeanor show just how much he enjoys human company. Despite his playful and energetic side, Fire is also easygoing and well-mannered. He walks nicely at a slow, steady pace on leash, is easy to leash up, and enjoys getting out and about. He’s a smart boy who already knows the sit command and is eager to please. When it’s playtime, Fire loves to chase balls, run around outside, and entertain himself with toys. He’s social, playful, and does well greeting both people and other dogs. Volunteer favorites for good reason, Fire has been described as: Very sweet and mellow Playful and social Affectionate and people-focused Polite with good manners He even rocked an Easter photo shoot—bunny ears and all—showing off his calm, cooperative personality!
