About Rollie

Meet Rollie, a charming Cocker Spaniel looking for his forever home. Unfortunately, his previous owner had to move and couldn't take him along, so Rollie came to us seeking a new family. He is a special needs dog with some unique traits; he tends to walk in circles, particularly when anxious or excited. While it may seem unusual, he can walk straight if he’s focused on something specific. Rollie has glaucoma, which led to the removal of his right eye, but he happily receives his drops in the left eye. This lovable guy is house trained and crate trained, and he's lived peacefully with cats. Rollie enjoys playing with toys, swimming, and exploring his surroundings, so a home with a fenced yard would be ideal to keep him safe. He's currently receiving medical checks from our caring vets to ensure he's in great shape. Rollie is ready to bring joy to a new family that will cherish him. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
