Roo's Story

PLEASE NOTE: This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to Massachusetts shortly with no additional travel costs. Roughly 90% of our dogs are adopted prior to their transport up to MA and 10% are adopted locally.<br/><br/>Meet Roo! Roo is approximately 1 year old, 50 lbs currently and he might have some Boxer in his mix! He was found as a stray. In his foster home, he is doing great with house training, crate training, and leash walking. He could join households with kids 5+, and other playful dogs. No cats, please!<br/><br/>His foster says, "Hi! My name is Roo because when I run I look like a kangaroo! Roo is a 1-year-old sweetheart with the cutest underbite you’ve ever seen and a personality to match. He’s good with other dogs (but no cats, please!) and has the best balance of energy. He loves all toys and is always happy to play, whether it’s tossing one around on his own or engaging in a game with you. When playtime is over, he’s just as content relaxing nearby and enjoying the calm. He would thrive in a home where he can be part of daily life — lounging nearby, going for walks, and soaking up affection. He’s the perfect mix of loyal companion and laid-back couch buddy. Whether you’re looking for a walking partner, a best friend, or a dog who will make your house feel more like home, he checks all the boxes."<br/><br/>He is available for adoption in N Dartmouth on February 27th. Please fill out an application on our website at https://www.browndogcoalition.com/adoptable as a first step.<br/><br/>-Dogs may not be given as gifts or surprises.<br/>-Please thoughtfully discuss with your entire household the physical, safety, financial and emotional responsibilities of a dog BEFORE applying to adopt.<br/>- More information about our adoption process, application and adoption fees can be found at browndogcoalition.com
