Roisin – ON HOLD

UPDATE: ROISIN IS NOW ‘ON HOLD’ HAVING MORE VET WORK WITH A POTENTIAL NEW HOME LINED UP

Sweet Roisin (pronounced “Ro-sheen”) is a lovable cuddle-bug looking for the perfect forever ever after home.

Roisin is super affectionate and loves all people, because people provide food, scratches and pats! She is looking for a home that can provide her with lots of love and attention, daily walks and tennis balls. Roisin likes to come into the bedroom just as you’re waking up to shower you with licks, it’s not for everyone, but she’s just so happy to see her people! Roisin sleeps soundly (well she snores a little) in her dog bed or other soft surface through the night, she’s perfectly house-trained and uses the dog door to take herself outside when she needs to. As an older dog Roisin has had some vet treatment while in care, she’s recovering well from surgery but prospective owners need to be aware that as dogs get older they do need more regular veterinary treatment.

Roisin is approximately 8 years old but she’s still got a spring in her step and if you aren’t watching does gently jump up to give you a lick, she doesn’t have a mean bone but she’s probably a bit much for young children.  Roisin is pretty strong on leash and when she’s determined to go somewhere it can take reasonable effort to change her track, she’s learning some leash manners in care but will need more training in her new home too, luckily she’ll do most things for devon. Roisin is okay with other dogs but her time with them is best in short bursts with close attention from people, she’s wants to play but other dogs don’t understand her pushy style and this can result in disagreements, she currently lives with another female dog so she can coexist but it’s not ideal long term. She’s not met cats but she’d probably chase them.

The perfect home for Roisin would have active adults who enjoy daily exercise, who work from home or are home more often than not, and who love to spend their time giving her pats! If this sounds like you please contact Chloe telling her a bit about the home you can offer. Roisin is not suited to living in an apartment, as an outside dog, or with other dogs.
