Meet Rooster, a true survivor and a shining example of resilience! 🐔❤️ Over a year ago, he arrived at Mikaela's Mutt Motel from a local animal shelter in a heartbreaking state—emaciated and in dreadful condition. But look at him now! This warm-hearted fellow is thriving, bursting with love, and ready to steal your heart! Rooster's journey hasn’t been easy. Due to his challenging past, he developed some resource-guarding behaviors when he first came to us. But thanks to our wonderful trainer at Twin Oaks Canine Camp, Rooster has shown tremendous growth! 🌟 His transformation from a timid, scared pup to a loving companion is nothing short of miraculous. Just imagine the joy of having him by your side! Now, Rooster is looking for a special, understanding home that can honor his unique needs. Here’s what to keep in mind: - Respect Rooster’s space and boundaries, particularly around those prized high-value items. 🏡💖 - Create a space where Rooster learns to respect yours too! Consistency and clear communication are the keys to success! 🔑 - No children, please! Due to his past and larger size, Rooster needs a child-free environment to feel secure. Rooster has a big heart! 🐾 He is sociable with both dogs and cats once proper introductions are made. He’s waiting to shower his special person with the affection they truly deserve! Could you be the one to give this amazing dog the forever love he has longed for? If your heart is open and your home is spacious enough for this incredible survivor, you can foster or adopt Rooster by applying through the Buddy App. Let’s create a happy ending for this special boy together! 🚀❤️
