Furry Friday: Meet Rowdy!

Furry Friday: Meet Rowdy!

Don’t let his distinguished grey face fool you – 7-year-old Rowdy still has plenty of pep in his step and a whole lot of love for adventure! This handsome boy is full of energy and curiosity. He’s easy to collar and walks right by the other dogs without a care, ready to get going, explore, and sniff every interesting spot along the way. He pulls a bit on the leash at first but responds well to gentle corrections, especially when there are tasty treats involved – he’s treat-motivated and smart, so teaching him new behaviors will be fun and rewarding.

Rowdy keeps his kennel clean and is on the potty-trained list. He doesn’t seem to know basic commands yet, but his eagerness for treats makes him a quick learner. He enjoys being groomed and recently went on a relaxing “spa daycation” with a volunteer. He needed a little encouragement (and a few treats) to hop in the car but settled down nicely and turned out to be a wonderful passenger.

At the groomer, Rowdy was a perfect gentleman. Afterwards, he spent time chilling on the back deck, happily watching birds and enjoying a plain cheeseburger, which he took gently in small bites. Back at the shelter, he curled up in his bed for a well-deserved nap.

Rowdy is a sweet, easygoing companion who’s ready to sniff out life’s next adventure with you. Come meet this great guy and see if he’s the one you’ve been searching for!

This senior just asks for 1 thing from you: he needs to be the king of his castle. We tried him in playgroups, and he was not a fan of our tester dog, so no other dogs in the home.

He is heartworm positive but that is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center is providing a $600 sponsorship to help with the cost of treatment.

If you’re interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at [email protected] with the subject line “Rowdy 257754”.

Rowdy is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
