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

A home with a tall fence backyard. An active family that enjoys outdoor activities and has a real intention to rescue a dog. Families with an open conscience about the needs of street animals and a willingness to provide protection and education. Experience in dog behavior and training is preferred, or a willingness to hire a trainer. High tolerance and patience for rescued puppies are essential. Romina is not house-trained.

Ongoing Health

Romina has an old hip fracture that has healed, resulting in one leg being slightly shorter than the others, though it does not affect her mobility. She has received a spay/neuter certificate, 2 DHPPI vaccines, rabies vaccine, Bordetella vaccine, is dewormed, microchipped, tested negative for heartworm, and has a monthly preventive protection of Nexgard Spectra.

Training & Support

Romina is not house-trained and likes to chew anything that catches her attention, so she will thrive in a home that can provide structure, playtime, and lots of love. She walks nicely on a leash but has a strong bark. Patience and understanding are crucial for her adjustment period.
