When Rollo first arrived- he couldn't understand why he was where he was. He looked at his surroundings in his kennel and kept trying to hide behind his litter box. Staff gave him a blanket to curl under so he wouldn't be afraid - but Rollo was not abject to a head rub and yes ---- even a belly rub. Rollo was not interested in eating for awhile- but now he munches dry food and treats like a champ. He also loves his toys :) and loves to curl up against a teddy bear. Speaking of teddy bears- Rollo doesn't mind being picked up- snuggled- or hugged closed to the chest. He thrives off of affection- and just wants to be near you so he can do his little tumble and show you his tummy to rub- that's how he got his name fyi -because he liked to "rollover" :). P.S. Rollo is litter box trained ---and doesn't seem to want to jump on counter tops or high places. Teach him where he is welcome and where it is best he stays on the ground. He will listen and strive to make you proud.
