A little about them
George is a lovable, playful, energetic Rottweiler puppy who loves people, children, cats, and other dogs. After surviving a serious car accident that caused lung damage and two severe jaw breaks, he is now muzzle-free and fully healed without further restrictions or complications.
George enjoys outdoor time and would thrive with an active adopter, ideally in a home with a backyard. He may jump when excited but settles with reminders and affection. He may also steal tasty food from counters if given the opportunity.
Ideal Home
- An experienced power-breed home
- A loving, active family ready for a playful puppy
- A backyard would be ideal, though outdoor adventures with his adopter could also suit him
- George is reported to do well with dogs, cats, children, and men
- Feed George in his crate for his lifetime to manage mild food-resource guarding around other dogs; his foster home reports improvement
