Roger is a handsome boy who is silly, sweet, and happy. He's a social little love who has the cutest greetings, happy dances, and excited spins. Roger loves going on walks, saying hi to people, and having them talk to him in a sweet voice (especially when a treat comes soon after!). He loves being included in activities with his humans, which is easy enough given his petite size!
Roger has been okay with other dogs, but will do well as a solo dog where he can get ALL of the attention. He's very food motivated and this active senior is very trainable. Roger will come to you when he wants pets and attention, and he will do best in a home with someone who understands his independent nature, his need for space, and quirks about being picked up without first gaining his permission. No cats or kids for Roger, please.
Roger has low to medium energy. He's a very chill boy when he wants, but if you're going on a walk or have another activity, he's always down to join you. He thrives on a consistent schedule and would do great in a home with an owner who enjoys relaxing time just as much as play time.
If you are looking for a bestie that will bring you lots of laughs and who is eager to please, apply to adopt Roger today!
