Beet Root's Story

**Meet Beet Root!** <br/><br/>Vampire or dog? We're still not entirely sure.<br/><br/>Beet Root came to us after being found with a neck laceration. Thankfully, his injury has healed beautifully. However, many people ask about his purple coloring. No, he wasn't born that way, and no, he isn't secretly part eggplant. His finder sprayed a purple wound treatment on him, and that's where his unique look comes from!<br/><br/>Beet Root is a dog who likes to do things on **Beet Root Time**. He came with a little spice and took about a week to fully trust his foster family. Once he decided they were worthy, though, he let them into his circle and has been steadily building confidence ever since.<br/><br/>He's learning that humans can be pretty great-as long as they respect his boundaries. One important rule: **nothing on the butt!** Beet Root is not a fan of butt scratches and would appreciate everyone keeping their hands to themselves in that department.<br/><br/>Underneath that spicy exterior is a sweet, affectionate boy with a loving and cuddly side. The fastest way to win him over? A game of fetch. Fetch is Beet Root's absolute favorite activity, and he'll happily spend hours chasing a ball and bringing it back for another throw.<br/><br/>He's also a big fan of treats and is more than willing to work for snacks. When he's not playing fetch, Beet Root is great at entertaining himself. He loves tossing toys around, carrying them proudly, and growling at them during epic battles that only he understands.<br/><br/>Beet Root is looking for a patient adopter who will allow him to build trust at his own pace and appreciate his quirky personality. Once you're in his circle, you'll discover a loyal companion with plenty of love to give.<br/><br/> Learn more about Beet Root and our adoption process at:<br/> **[www.runawaysanimalrescue.org](http://www.runawaysanimalrescue.org)**<br/><br/>=
