Hi there, meet Roadie! This little 15lb dumplin’ seems to be some especially adorable mix of spaniel/Shih Tzu/Poodle (maybe some Papillon, too? Who knows!). Whatever his genes, he’s a little sweetie with the softest fur you ever felt, tiny paws, and a curly perky tail! Roadie came to us after a good Samaritan rescued him after he was hit by a car. Thankfully, Roadie only needed minor medical care, and after just two weeks he’s ready to find his Forever Family!
This little love bug wants nothing more than to bury himself inside a pile of blankets next to you on the couch & cuddle/sleep all day. We think he’s about 2-4 years old, and while he can be a sleepy snuggler, he can *also* have some really fun, excited energy when he wants to play… or when you bring out the treats! He is very food motivated and would like to learn some new tricks that will help him earn cookies.
Roadie is neutered, UTD on shots, housebroken, & crate trained. He hasn’t reacted to any other dogs he’s met on walks, though he hasn’t had a lot of off-leash doggie play time yet. He wants to pull on his leash at first, but with a savvy handler he quickly falls back by your side and stops pulling. He can be a bit shy at first, but we think he’d do well with kids as he is quite tolerant of handling and has a lot of fun playing & snuggling with humans, and he doesn’t get hyperactive.
Do you think Roadie could be your new cuddle buddy? Please send in an adoption application through the website: http://www. rocketdogrescue.org/adopt/ adoption-application/ and email adopt@rocketdogrescue.org!
