About Rowdy

Rowdy is a playful and energetic young dog, about 1.5 years old and weighing 74 pounds. He still needs to be neutered, so if you decide to adopt him, he will be placed on hold until after his surgery. Rowdy came into the shelter with another dog, but adjusting to new canine friends has been a challenge for him. His ideal home would approach introductions slowly and carefully. While he has not been tested with cats, his rough-and-tumble play style suggests that supervision would be essential in those introductions. Rowdy is still learning his manners, so a home with kids over 10 would be best, especially since he can get a bit jumpy. This big guy loves to play, making regular exercise a must for his well-being. He arrived at the shelter as a surrender, and his behavior observed here helps guide potential adopters, but expect to learn more about him as he adjusts to a new home. Adopt Rowdy, and you’ll also receive post-adoption support, vaccinations, and a microchip for his safety. Ready to meet Rowdy? He’s waiting for a forever home, and it could be yours!
