With a little structure, he’s an absolute dream.<br/><br/>💔➡️❤️ A Tough Past, A Bright Future<br/>Rooster came from a heartbreaking situation where he was neglected and left without proper care. Thankfully, he was surrendered before things got worse, and since then he has blossomed into the loving, trusting, joyful dog he was always meant to be. Despite everything, he gives nothing but unconditional love.<br/><br/>🌟 Rooster Deserves the World<br/>This boy is an all‑around wonderful dog who just wants a family to adore.
