Male | 3 months old | Medium energy | Hasn’t met kids or cats | Friendly with dogs | From Manitoba | Fostered in Toronto | Curious & learning lots
Meet ROO! Changing by the day as his confidence grows, this scruff has been showing off just how sweet he can be… and also how stubborn! He’s been learning so many things since moving from Manitoba to Toronto. While this might be his foster parents’ first time caring for an SOS scruff, they had previous dog experience of their own, which has helped them come up with a schedule that works for them. They’ve described their experience with ROO so far as “wonderful,” which we know will be encouraging for potential adopters to hear!
Let’s get to the real talk real quick. Puppies are work, and potty training in particular is certainly not linear. This is something he continues to work on, though is doing well with, often asking to go out on his own! As ROO grows both literally and developmentally, so too does his curiosity. While he might not want to go for a walk in the cold, once he’s outside, he’s a little social butterfly wanting to say hello to each and every dog. This is great progress, looking back at the timid pup that first arrived in Toronto.
ROO fills his days with stick-chewing, squirrel-watching, napping and playing tug. He also enjoys being close to his humans, so much so, that he can be described as a stage-five clinger. Implementing boundaries and continuing to work on crate training (which he enjoys using) will come in handy in the long run. Of course, it can be hard to resist those puppy cuddles, which is exactly what his adopters can look forward to in addition to taking him on their own adventures and continuing his training.
