Description:

*** Rootbeer is currently in foster in NJ.   Applications for adoption should be submitted at www.socorescue.com***

After his first week in foster, we are getting to know him better.  Rootbeer was immediately affectionate showing appreciation for coming to a home with a bed and lots of toys.  His foster mom says he is playful and friendly with everyone he meets.  He is doing good with house and crate training.  They have enjoyed walks together and he loves greeting people and meeting other dogs on leash.  He has an alpha attitude and will likely do best as an only dog for now and without small kids that he could unknowingly knock down.  He is fearful of the family cat so and we are hoping he will be compatible with cats.  Everyday in foster Rootbeer is learning more and more how to be a good family member. 

Rootbeer was brought to the rescue at the young age of 8 months and then spent 18 long months there!  It truly is time for him to live his life in a home with a family.  He was found as a stray. The woman who found him had a cat and another dog, she reported that he got along well with both.  When he arrived at SoCo, he came in with an injury on his foot that has fully healed.  

At the Rescue, Rootbeer was friendly with both people and other dogs.  He proved to be very playful, active and food motivated.  He learned to sit and  fetch.  He would do best in an environment that offers and active lifestyle.  He will need basic training.  

Rootbeer is neutered, up to date on all vaccines and monthly preventatives.  He is heartworm negative.
