About Roo

Meet Roo! This lively five-and-a-half-year-old American Pitbull Terrier mix is currently in Waynesville, NC. With her striking black coat and charming white accents, she weighs in at 45 pounds and is eager to be your playful companion and affectionate snuggler. Roo warms up slowly to new faces, but those who are patient will find a loyal friend ready to shower them with affection. She enjoys being close to her favorite people, going for car rides, and engaging in playtime followed by cozy cuddle sessions. This medium-energy gal loves her routine, including regular walks and fun play dates. Having successfully completed a seven-week basic obedience course, Roo knows commands such as sit, stay, and lay down. Continuing her training with positive reinforcement will not only enhance her skills but also strengthen your bond. Despite her sweet demeanor, Roo has faced challenges in her past, including an injury from a rope embedded in her neck, now a scar, and experiences that left her sensitive to certain situations. Roo requires an adult-only home and doesn’t do well with children, as she can get anxious and has shown signs of nipping in stressful situations. A quiet environment suited to her needs will foster her happiness and security. Her prey drive is strong, so no cats or small animals in her new home, please. While Roo is social and playful with other dogs off the leash, she may need support during on-leash interactions. Roo is spayed, microchipped, house-trained, crate-trained, and up to date on vaccinations. Ideally, she’ll thrive with experienced, active adults who can provide the structure, consistency, and affection she craves. Would you be the one to offer Roo the loving home she deserves? Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
