Rollo has the gentle touch and warmth of his candy namesake. This 2-year-old Shepherd mix, around 47 pounds, brings both athletic energy and a loyal heart into the room. He’s an active, playful dog, working on house training and already good on a leash—plus, he knows his sit and stay. Rollo gets along well with most other dogs, especially females, and doesn’t mind cats. He hasn’t spent time with children, and he needs careful supervision with male dogs. A fenced yard is best for him, as he prefers to do his business while exploring outside rather than on-leash walks. Cheese and cow hooves are his simple pleasures, though storms still rattle him. Meeting strangers can make him timid, but give him a little time and his friendly side comes out. Rollo is recovering well from a recent round of heartworm treatment, and should have no lasting issues. He must be adopted locally in the Springfield area so he can finish his medical care at the Rescue One Clinic. He’ll do best with adopters who understand he needs comfort and patience as he builds trust. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
