From the very beginning, Rooney stood out as something special. Born the week after Thanksgiving as one of eleven puppies, there was just something about this little guy that made everyone pause and smile. With his handsome face and wonderfully wild, fluffy hair, Rooney has a way of bringing laughter and light wherever he goes. He’s the kind of puppy who quietly captures your heart. Rooney is incredibly sweet, charming, and full of that joyful puppy energy that makes every day brighter. He loves to cuddle just as much as he loves to play, and his foster family will tell you that he brings endless smiles with his silly moments and gentle affection. Rooney had a DNA test done and it revealed a wonderful mix of mostly Poodle and Australian Shepherd. The result is a smart, loving pup with a curious mind and a soft, devoted nature. He is already crate trained and mostly housebroken, which is quite impressive for such a young boy. While Rooney can be a calm and thoughtful little soul at times, he absolutely lights up when he’s around other young dogs. That’s when the zoomies come out and the fun begins. He truly loves company and thrives on being part of the action. Rooney is expected to grow into a perfect medium-sized companion at around 35 pounds one day. He is the kind of dog who will grow alongside his family, sharing adventures, quiet moments, and years of unconditional love. If you are looking for a puppy who will become a once-in-a-lifetime companion, Rooney may be the one you’ve been waiting for.
