Roy’s Personality
Meet Roy — the sweetest gentle soul with a heart full of affection. He loves being close to his human, soaking up pets, cuddles, and calm companionship.
He might be soft and sweet, but he’s also a playful young pup! Roy enjoys dogs, outdoor time, and joining in on all the fun.
He’s also wonderfully easy to have around:
Great in the car
Calm and well-mannered at home
Happy adventurer on walks, hikes, or outings
Whether you want a snuggly companion or a walking buddy, Roy is the perfect mix of playful and peaceful. He’s ready to follow you everywhere and bring joy into your home.
Roy’s Ideal Home
Roy thrives in a home filled with love, presence, and companionship. His dream family is one that enjoys having a loyal little shadow nearby — someone who appreciates a dog who wants to be part of daily life.
He’ll do best with:
Daily walks and playtime
A family that isn’t gone long hours
A friendly dog companion (optional but wonderful!)
A household that enjoys both adventure and snuggly downtime
Active home? Perfect. Quiet home? Also perfect. As long as there is love, kindness, and togetherness, Roy will fit right in.
Roy’s Rescue Story
Roy’s life began with heartbreak. He and his three siblings were abandoned at just 2 months old — no mom, no help, no chance. At the same time, their rescuer had just been diagnosed with cancer. Even while fighting her own battle, she did not turn her back on the puppies. With the support of a friend, all four were placed for adoption.
Roy was adopted… and for 10 months, it seemed like he had found his happy ending.But after a divorce, the couple returned him — confused, unwanted, and unsure why he lost the only home he knew.
His original rescuer, still recovering, took him back without hesitation. She adored him, but she knew Roy deserved a forever family who would commit to him for life. That’s when she came to us.
Now Roy is ready for his true fresh start — a loving home where he will finally be cherished, safe, and included forever.
Currently in Mexico
Roy is waiting for a family committed to a 10-day trial so he can travel to Washington.
