Hey everyone, I’m “Roo”! That’s short for KANGAROO in Australia. Yeah, really!!! I didn’t get my name because I’m a crazy bouncy gal, but because of my, if you didn’t notice, BIG EARS!!!! KangaROO ears! I could almost fly with these things….

I’m a “7 month” FEMALE Cattle Dog mix saved by Molly’s in the nick of time. Yes, can you believe it, I was on my “3rd” rescue plea , last chance for my “Get out of Jail Free Card"! Or I’da been a goner, kicked the bucket, cashed out….! Sure was a close call, but I’m safe now and enjoying life! At a slight “21” pounds, I won’t be a big gal, other than my ears…. So guess I’d be considered a great LAP SIZE kind of gal! Maybe 30 pounds… maybe…..

Initially shy at first meet, a fenced yard is needed for my safe keeping… but in no time flat, my true personality comes out and a Happy, Happy, Happy pup I become!

If you didn’t notice, I’m definitely a “Looker”. Cute as a button, sleek, gorgeous color mix of brown, white, tan with black highlights and mascara trimmed eyes! Oh, don’t forget, such an expressive face to balance out my KangaROO ears. Who can resist?

Cattle dogs are very intelligent, loyal and energetic people pleasing dogs that learn quickly.  Considered EXCELLENT family pets, we do love our people! Being a mix, I have not shown any herding tendencies, so I’ll be Easy Peasy to train!

So get off your duff, jump out of that chair and get your application in for “ROO”, The KangaROO Gal” that will make your life an adventure filled with LOVE!
