Fun bio, anything important we need to know:
Meet Rookie!
Rookie is a big-hearted, affectionate dog who loves deeply and shows it through cuddles, playtime, and constant companionship. He’s an active, energetic pup who thrives on movement and would make a fantastic partner for runs, walks, and outdoor adventures. One of his favorite things is simply laying outside, soaking up the fresh air and sunshine, perfectly content just being near his people.
Rookie is highly trainable and eager to please. He already knows many commands, including sit, stay, wait, come, spin, and lay down, and truly enjoys learning and working with his humans.
He has been a wonderful, loyal member of our family for nearly four years. As our family has grown and life has changed with young children, we’ve realized that this isn’t the ideal setup for him. Rookie would thrive in a home with older children or adults only, where he can receive the attention, consistency, and activity level he deserves.
Rookie also loves car rides and has been an excellent travel companion—always happy to tag along and ready for the next adventure. He’s looking for a loving home where he can be a devoted best friend, outdoor buddy, and constant companion.
