A little about them

Root Beer is a happy-go-lucky, goofy, affectionate girl who loves outdoor adventures, beach walks and swimming, tennis balls, squeaky toys, puzzle toys, blankets, pillows and tummy rubs. She bonds closely with one person and will be a devoted companion.

Ideal Home

Root Beer needs a home with one adult and no children. She must be the only animal, with no dogs or cats. She would do best in a single-family suburban home rather than a busy city environment. An active adopter who enjoys spending time outdoors would be a great match.

Ongoing Health

Root Beer survived parvovirus after receiving emergency veterinary care as a young dog. She is spayed and vaccinated.

Training & Support

Root Beer is completely housebroken and non-destructive. She knows basic commands including “Shake,” “Toy,” “Ball,” “Inside” and “Place,” and she is very treat motivated, making training easy. She enjoys exploring, roaming, swimming and playing fetch, including catching tennis balls mid-air.
