Meet Roo!
Roo is a smart and spirited cattle dog mix who is eager to find her perfect match. She has all the wonderful traits that make heelers so incredible—she's loyal, loves to be involved in everything you do, and is always ready for the next adventure. Roo is estimated to be 4 months old and weighs 19lbs as of July 10th.
Ideal Home
Roo needs an experienced cattle dog owner who understands the physical and mental exercise this breed requires. She is not a good fit for first-time dog owners and will not do well in an apartment; a fenced yard is a must. An active lifestyle with plenty of exercise and enrichment is essential. She would absolutely thrive in a home with another playful, energetic dog who can match her energy, as having a canine companion helps keep her engaged and provides an outlet for play.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions or procedures were mentioned.
Training & Support
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 inside. She's not destructive, especially when her mind and body are kept busy. Her new family should be committed to continuing her training and helping her reach her full potential.
