Meet Ro
If you’re searching for a fluffy best friend who excels in the art of relaxation and subtle play, Ro is your guy! At just 1 year old and tipping the scales at a perfect 40 lbs, this black Collie mix is the definition of a lap-sized companion with a heart as big as Texas.
Ro may come off as the shy type, but give him a minute to warm up and he’ll be your shadow, especially if you’re into quiet evenings and relaxed weekends. His ideal day includes a good chew bone session or chasing after his favorite ball in the yard. Inside, he’s the epitome of well-mannered, always knowing where to find the coziest spots and how to use the puppy eyes to get extra cuddles.
Don't let his initial shyness fool you; once he’s comfortable, Ro’s friendly nature shines brightly. He thrives in a home with another canine pal, playing gently and finding confidence in their presence. Whether it’s a chase in the backyard or a tug-of-war session, he’s all in—but always at a pace that keeps things friendly and fun.
Ro is on his best behavior when it comes to meeting new dogs, preferring those who share his chill vibe and size. While he’s a hit at smaller doggy gatherings, he likes to stick close to his known friends, showing off his social but selective style.
For those on the quieter side of life who enjoy the great outdoors as much as snuggling on the couch, Ro would be a delightful addition. He’s fully house-trained, walks like a gentleman on a leash (with just a gentle reminder here and there not to tug), and settles into his crate without a fuss.
His perfect match would be an experienced owner who appreciates a dog with a sweet nature and a bit of initial caution. Ro would thrive in an environment that offers consistency and patience, allowing him to fully come out of his shell. He’s ideally suited to a home with another friendly dog where he can continue to blossom and share the love he has to give.
Get ready to meet Ro, the gentle soul who’s all set to fill your home with love, loyalty, and a touch of playfulness. If you’re looking for a canine companion who’s as content exploring the yard as he is lounging by your side, Ro might just be the one to complete your family!
