Rumi's Story

Rumi is a young Aussie mix with a big personality, lots of energy, and a love for fun. She absolutely loves being around people and is always ready for whatever adventure comes next.<br/><br/>Rumi was recently returned because she was a little too rough with the children in the home, especially during outdoor playtime. Like many herding breeds, she has a tendency to try to herd kids, so a home with older children or dog-savvy kids would likely be the best fit.<br/><br/>She is still young and full of puppy enthusiasm, so Rumi would benefit from some basic manners training and continued guidance. She’s a smart girl who is eager to learn and would thrive with an active family willing to help her channel her energy in positive ways.<br/><br/>Rumi may do well with other dogs and would love a home that can match her playful spirit.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a fun, energetic companion who will keep life exciting, Rumi might be the perfect match for you. 🐶💛<br/><br/>***House training is unknown, as most of our dogs arrive as strays, so we cannot guarantee they are house trained. 🐾
