My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

If Rolo could ask one question, he would ask me, "Why haven't I found my new home yet?" I keep assuring him that his forever home is out there and his forever humans have just got to find him!
He is being very patient and knows the perfect home is awaiting him. Rolo is great on a leash with a harness being better for him. He is good around other dogs once he is introduced appropriately to them. He had never been around other animals before coming to CPR, but he has warmed up nicely. After meeting and sniffing, he does good.
He loves to play with kids but doesn't realize his size so caution should be taken around small children. He was with a 9 yr old boy at his former home and they were best buds. He loves to receive and give kisses and will sit for treats all day long. He loves to run around his foster mom's big backyard and is fast as lightning. He is a chocolate lab mix and just turned 2 yrs old in November.
********U{DATE!!!! At one point we had said that Rolo wasn't good around cats as he was taken to a neighbor's house and cat-tested and the cat slapped at him and he wasn't very happy about that. I just took him to the vet to get his 6-month Proheart prevention shot, and there was a friendly cat there and Rolo did AWESOME with it!! I have the videos to prove it. He was nose-to-nose with the feline and neither one seemed to mind - SO, ROLO IS GOOD WITH KITTIES!!! If interested in seeing videos of this, please email me at ruthieb66@gmail,com and I would love to share them!
He is crate-trained and has already learned to use a doggie door. He is house-trained and has done well being taken out on regular schedules. He knows basic commands. He will sleep cuddly in the bed with his human or is just as happy in his crate that he feels secure in for the night.
If you have it in your heart to give this lover boy a home then please apply for him! He will not let you down!

This sweet CPR doggy has a special adoption fee of $300! If you aren't able to adopt at this time, won't you please share and help us find Rola a home of his own?

Let Rolo show you how he can love his new family with all his heart and he won't let you down.

If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 12pm-2pm. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05.

TO APPLY PLEASE GO TO www.cprdogs.com. If your application was successfully submitted you will get a confirmation. Please DO NOT USE the ADOPTAPET "CONTACT THIS RESCUE GROUP" form below or you may not hear from us as these often end up in the spam or bouncing back.
