Name: Rollie
Age: 2 yrs
Breed: Pit Mix
Sex: Male
This is Rollie we are courtesy posting for another rescue. This is what his trainer Sherry Garcia with Side by Side Dog Training had to say "Rollie was in my board and train program over the summer. His plans for a foster home didn't work out. Rollie is currently boarded at my house. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to do much more with training since I continuously get new clients that need my full attention. But he still has daily rules and boundaries to follow, and his day is still structured. Rollie would love a foster or forever home that would continue his training. I will support the training efforts with foster or forever home."
Rollie is house trained and crate trained. He would do best with one or two adults who would be strong leaders for him. He will need to be the only pet in the house.
Rollie loves napping and snoring after a nice walk. His favorite toys are nylabones and marrow bones. He loves feeding time.
Rollie is a good boy who just needs guidance and keeping a calm state of mind when meeting new people.
Rollie is available for adoption through Underdog Rescue. If you are interested in meeting Rollie, please give me a call 480-809-9247.
