About Rookie-Pending

Meet Rookie! He's an adorable, smart, friendly, and energetic young pup who is ready to find his forever family. Rookie is a teething puppy and can be a bit mischievous, but he loves to play ball and is learning new commands. He's already living with other dogs in his foster home and enjoys their company.

Ideal Home

Rookie would thrive in a home with an experienced adopter who is familiar with his breed and has the time to devote to his training and exercise needs. He would be a perfect match for another high-energy, playful, and friendly dog. Due to his size and excitability, children over 10 would be best. A secure, fenced-in yard is a must for this active boy.

Ongoing Health

Rookie is a young puppy, estimated to be born around November 10, 2025. He is up-to-date on vaccinations.

Training & Support

Rookie is still learning and can be mischievous as he's a teething puppy. He enjoys playing ball and is working on commands like "drop it." Consistent training and plenty of exercise will help him succeed.

Application Details:

Applications start by contacting us through Wags.

Transporation

Rookie is located in Detroit, MI. Transportation may be available.
