Rome's Story

Rome and his brother were found together after being abandoned in Richmond, CA, but thankfully their story took a happy turn. Now thriving in foster care in Rodeo, CA, Rome is healthy, confident, and ready to start his next chapter with a forever family.<br/><br/>Rome is about 1 year old and weighs around 58 pounds. He's a Belgian Malinois mix with a sleek black coat that gleams in the sun, soft brown socks, a little white on his chest, and expressive upright ears that are always tuned in to what's happening around him. He's handsome for sure - but it's his personality that really shines.<br/><br/>Rome is smart, athletic, and full of joyful energy. He loves being active and would be a fantastic companion for someone who enjoys hiking, running, or outdoor adventures. That said, he's not all go-go-go - he also knows how to settle and enjoy downtime with his people.<br/><br/>He's crate trained, housebroken, and friendly with other dogs. Like many young pups, his play style can be enthusiastic, but it's all in good fun. Rome is very treat-motivated and eager to learn, making him a joy to train and bond with.<br/><br/>At home, Rome enjoys good food (chicken, duck, and salmon are top-tier in his book) and even appreciates some background music - rock and roll is his favorite, though he's willing to humor a little country now and then He'd love a home with another dog to play with, especially one who can match his energy.<br/><br/>Rome is looking for a family who's ready for adventure, laughter, and lots of love. In return, he'll be a loyal, fun-loving companion who brings heart, happiness, and plenty of tail wags into your life.
