Rollick and his two siblings, Taboo and Jenga found themselves unwanted at a high kill shelter in West Texas. They are good with other dogs and kids, cats are unknown. All dogs and puppies require supervision and training.
Rollick came from Texas to Minnesota in August 2023 with his siblings. He is a Lab mix and it’s estimated that he was born in spring 2023. The name Rollick means “to behave in a carefree, joyous manner” and that names really fits his personality! He is a very happy and loving dog. He absolutely loves to cuddle up with you on the couch and watch a movie or the Vikings game!
Because he is a young dog, he has a lot of energy. He would do well in an active household that can take him out for walks frequently. He likes toys more than treats and is a bit of a picky eater.
Rollick doesn’t like being in his kennel, but with time, training, and showing that you’ll always come back that can be corrected. He is a bit of an escape artist and can easily figure out how to get out of a traditional wire kennel. However, his foster mom has a large metal crate with thick bars that she bought on Amazon and that successfully keeps him contained while she’s at work. He doesn’t bark unless he wants to be let out of his kennel or there’s someone at the door. Rollick is a great watchdog!
Rollick would do great with kids as he is very gentle and will smother you with kisses! He also does well with his foster brothers and the neighbor dogs. Cats are unknown, but his foster mom guesses that he will chase them! So if you have a cat who can stand up for themself, they should be fine and can learn to be great buddies.
Make sure to keep your doors and fence closed with Rollick around, because he sure loves to explore! He wants to go out and see the neighborhood if you’re not careful.
Rollick is a great dog and loves to love. He wants to be your best friend and he hopes that he will find his forever adventure buddy soon!
