My personality

My story

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

Meet Roo, a sweet and gentle 4-year-old girl who has known nothing but hardship in her life. Rescued from a horrific puppy mill where she was chained outside with 30 other dogs, Roo is now looking for a loving forever home where she can finally learn what it means to be cherished.

A little about Roo:

Quiet and Fearful: Understandably, Roo is still very timid and unsure of the world. She doesn't bark or bite, but she will need a patient and understanding family who can help her build confidence.

Crate Trained: Roo is crate trained and sleeps soundly through the night. She will need to be taken outside on a leash to potty, but with consistent routine and positive reinforcement, she will thrive.

Sweet and Gentle: Despite her difficult past, Roo has a loving heart. She enjoys gentle petting and will blossom with affection and reassurance.
Ideal Home:

Roo would do best in a quiet home with a family experienced with puppy mill dogs or fearful dogs in general. A home without young children would be ideal, as she needs a calm and predictable environment. Someone who is home often and can dedicate time to her socialization would be perfect.

If you think you can open your heart and home to Roo, please fill out our application today. She deserves a chance at a happy life filled with love and kindness.

Here is the application: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application

There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to her new furever family.
