Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Rooney!
This dude loves nothing more than fun, playing, and socializing with people and other dogs! He's a smart as a whip and picks up on stuff very quickly! He enjoys training and loves to show off his little prance when he gets something right! Rooney has been working on his leash manners, learning to sit (Which he is now a master at!), learning auto-sit to help keep his handler engagement, and learning to keep his paws (And mouth) to himself! When meeting new people, he gets extremely excited and forgets his manners (He has baby brain, what can he say!?)
Rooney wouldn't mind meeting future dog siblings. He is although no cats due to chasing them in the previous home. As for kids, Rough and tumble kids would be best suited for this high energy guy, though. When he gets the zoomies, he may accidentally take a kid down, he has no body awareness he also likes to sit on them and at 68lbs that could hurt a little one! Rooney also is in need of a home where someone is always with him, he can go to work with them etc. He has separation anxiety and is destructive when unsupervised, but luckily Rooney loves to ride and go on adventures.
Come on down with the whole family (Including future dog siblings) to meet Rooney!
