Meet Rowan, a tiny gentleman disguised as a dog! This boy is about 1.5 years old and weighs around 39 pounds, but he’s so compact he looks even smaller. Rowan is a gentle, quiet, and sensitive soul who prefers to observe and warm up slowly. He can be shy and nervous in new situations, but with patience, he blossoms into a calm and sweet companion. Earning his trust is incredibly rewarding, leading to peaceful moments of shared presence. He's also very respectful and easygoing with other dogs, calmly acknowledging them without seeking play.
Ideal Home
Rowan would thrive in a calm environment with patient people who understand shy dogs need time to decompress. A home with a yard and a quieter setting would be ideal, as busy apartment living might be overwhelming. While he hasn't been officially tested with children, older, calm kids would likely be a better fit. We can arrange a kid-test for interested adopters.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.
