Roma is a 10-month-old Retriever mix with a bright and loving personality. Weighing in at a healthy 40lbs, shes an outgoing and friendly pup who greets everyone with a wagging tail and a playful spirit. Roma loves attention and isn't shy about asking for belly rubs or giving you a big kiss to show her affection. Sweet Roma was adopted as a baby, and then found a a stray once later. Were excited to find her the family she deserves.
Roma enjoys the company of other dogs and loves playful games like chase and tug-of-war. Shes happiest in a home with another playful dog or an active family who can provide her with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. While shes presumed to be good with cats (and has done well in initial testing), her foster family is monitoring her interactions for updates. Although shes still perfecting her house training (currently about 50% there), Roma willingly enters her crate and settles after a short adjustment. She walks well on a leash, making her a great companion for outdoor adventures.
Romas ideal home would include space to play and loving companions - whether thats active humans, kids, or canine friends. With her playful energy and loving nature, shes ready to become the heart of a happy, active household.
Roma comes with an unlimited supply of love, laughter, and, of course, belly rub requests! Are you ready to meet this joyful pup and give her the loving forever home she deserves? Romas tail is wagging, and shes ready to start her next adventure with you!
