Meet Roo!
This smart and spirited little cattle dog is ready to find her perfect match. Roo has all the traits that make heelers so incredible—she's loyal, eager to be involved in everything you do, and always ready for the next adventure. Because of her intelligence and drive, cattle dog experience is required. She is not a good fit for first-time dog owners and will not do well in an apartment. She needs an active home that understands the physical and mental exercise this breed requires. Roo is mostly house-trained and fully crate-trained. While she isn't a fan of going into her crate, she settles down quickly and does well once she's inside. She's also not destructive, especially when her mind and body are kept busy. Roo would absolutely thrive in a home with another playful dog who can match her energy. Having a canine companion helps keep her engaged, gives her an outlet for play, and allows her to be the happy, confident dog she's meant to be. Roo isn't the right dog for everyone, but for the right family, she'll be an incredibly loyal companion who will stick by your side through every adventure. As of July 10th, Roo is estimated to be 4 months old and weighs 19lbs.
