ROMAN - HUSKY / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Husky / Mixed. Roman is a comeback king looking for the perfect family to embark on a new life adventure with! When his pregnant mom showed up at the animal shelter, there were no beds left, so Roman was born on the floor of the shelter director’s office. He spent the first year of his life in shelters, but he’s now living with a foster family in Sacramento, where he has been since August 2024. After so long in the shelter, Roman is anxious around new people, but he loves dogs and gets along great with cats. He loves to play, wrestle, and zoom with his foster sister—a mastiff twice his size. He is incredibly gentle. He never bites or growls, even when he is scared, and he doesn’t chase or bother the cats at his foster home. He likes to play with toys and bones, which he collects and stashes in his bed, and is great at self-directing. Rome is house-trained and crate-trained. He walks gently on a leash without pulling. He’s a smart boy who loves training (and treats!), and he is learning some basic commands. He would love to learn more tricks with you! Roman has a great mix of athleticism and chill. He would love to run or hike, play in the woods or at the beach, or learn agility games. He bounces around the yard like a gazelle, but the best part is, he’s also perfectly happy hanging around the house watching Netflix. Rome would do best in a situation where he can play with other dogs and where he isn’t forced into close proximity with strangers. He is fine being left on his own for a little while, but he hasn’t been tested alone for a full day. Like all the best dogs, Rome can be a bit mischievous. While not destructive, if Roman is bored or left alone too long, he may check your counters for snacks or hide your shoes in his bed. He has been very receptive to corrections around this behavior, though, so with some patience, it’s likely he will outgrow this. With a little patience, Roman will show you that he is a sweet, goofy, loyal dog who loves to play, run, and snuggle. Roman cannot wait to meet you, even if he’s going to be a little shy about it Excited to find your new family member at Wags and Whiskers? Our pets are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered.
