Roo

Roo is a 1-year-old spayed female Heeler mix with a gentle spirit who is still learning that the world-and the people in it-can be safe. She came from a situation where she didn't receive much positive human interaction, so she is understandably fearful and unsure around people right now. Roo is not aggressive; instead, she tends to be avoidant and prefers to keep her distance until she feels comfortable.<br/><br/>Because of this, Roo will need a very patient and understanding home that is willing to move at her pace and celebrate the small victories along the way. A calm household without young children would be best for her, allowing her to build confidence in a quiet and predictable environment.<br/><br/>One of Roo's biggest hurdles right now is learning to feel comfortable with a leash. She is still very unsure about it and will need someone dedicated to helping her slowly build confidence through gentle guidance and positive reinforcement. With time, consistency, and kindness, she has the potential to make wonderful progress.<br/><br/>Roo can show barrier reactivity with other dogs, but when she has been properly introduced to calm, respectful dogs, she has done okay. Because of this, a meet and greet will be required for any dogs already in the home to ensure it's a good match.<br/><br/>Roo would likely thrive in a home with a secure yard where she can explore and decompress while continuing to learn that people can be kind. The family who gives Roo the patience and compassion she needs will get to witness something truly special-the transformation of a shy, uncertain dog into a loyal and devoted companion.
