Romina

Romina is a beautiful young pup, about 1 year and 8 months old, weighing 57 lbs. She has an incredible spirit and a big heart that shines through her playful personality. Romina had a tough start to life. She was found abandoned in an empty lot, injured and infested with fleas. After being rescued and taken to the vet, it was discovered she had an old hip fracture that had already healed on its own. With time and care, she recovered wonderfully. She now walks and runs with ease, though one of her legs remains slightly shorter than the others—it doesn’t slow her down one bit! This girl is full of energy and loves to run, chase balls, chew her toys, and enjoy yummy treats besides her kibble. Romina is very loyal, curious, and affectionate with humans. She also gets along well with other dogs and has experience living with cats. While she doesn’t attack them, she can be a bit rough when playing, so supervision is best. Romina is a social dog who enjoys the company of both kids and adults. She’s used to sleeping in her crate, walks nicely on a leash, and joins right in when her doggy friends bark—her voice is strong! She’s still young and likes to chew anything that catches her attention, so she’ll thrive in a home that can give her structure, playtime, and lots of love. It's essential to recognize that our dogs may have experienced trauma before arriving at ADAC. As a result, they may require an adjustment period in a foster or permanent home. Patience and understanding are absolutely crucial when dealing with rescued dogs.

Ideal Home

• Home with a tall fenced backyard.
• Active family that enjoys outdoor activities.
• Families with a real intention to rescue a dog, not only adopt.
• Families with an open conscience about the rescue of street animals and their need for protection and education.
• Families with experience in dog behavior and training background, or willing to hire a trainer.
• High tolerance and patience for rescued pups.
• Romina can be a bit rough when playing with cats, so supervision is best.

Ongoing Health

Romina had an old hip fracture that has healed on its own. One of her legs is slightly shorter than the others, but it does not slow her down. She has received her spay/neuter certificate, 2 DHPPI vaccines, rabies vaccine, Bordetella vaccine, is dewormed, microchipped, and has a negative 4DX test, heartworm test, and health certificate. She is on monthly Nexgard Spectra preventive.

Training & Support

Romina is not house-trained. She likes to chew, so she will thrive in a home that can provide structure and playtime. Patience and understanding are crucial as she may need an adjustment period to a new environment due to past experiences.

Transporation

All necessary legal documents, including a transport contract and USDA health certificate, will be provided. For US adoptions, pets will be escorted across the border into Texas. For Canadian adoptions, pets will be delivered to the nearest US-Canada border. A private Facebook Messenger group will be created for adopters to receive real-time updates on the pet's journey. The transport team will deliver the pet directly to your home address and conduct a final home review.
