Dog Name: Ragnar
Breed: Rottweiler
Sex: Male
Age: 7 years old
Weight: 117lbs
Medical Needs: Thyro-Tab, Dermaquin, Zenrelia (as needed), Cosequin Joint Health, Weekly Ear cleanings
Housebroken: Yes!
Crate trained: Yes! He will go to his crate just to relax but listens very well.
Good in the car: Yes! He just wants to be up with you or laying down. No real in between. But he LOVES to go for a ride.
Good on a leash? He is good with a martingale in known places and just going out. He does have a tendency to pull in unfamiliar areas so when going out, we use a prong.
Energy level: Some excitement and zoomies! The old man can move if he wants.
Need a fenced in yard: no
Dog Friendly: Yes. He likes other friends!
If yes, does your foster need another dog in its adoptive homes? No, he loves his people.
Cat Friendly? He wants to be friends with the resident kitty, and has made great progress, but will still chase if kitty runs away.
Ragnar is easily redirected when this happens and doesn't seem to mean kitty any harm.
If his new family has cats, it would be best if they were already accustomed to miniature pony sized dogs to hopefully cut down on them running from him.
Kid Friendly: Amazing with kids. Loves nothing more than his tiny humans.
If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Any age as long as there is proper supervision
Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them? He is the sweetest gentlest giant. All he wants is to be by your side and enjoy supervising whatever you are doing. He loves to be outside in a yard, laying in the shade. He still loves to play tug and then get good cuddles after. A 117lbs of pure love.
