Can you make room for an adorable dog who will be the best friend a person can ask for?

Roo, a two-year-old jack russell terrier, has been described as a “very cute” dog, who is searching for a new home after winding up at the RSPCA Stubbington Ark.

The independent rescue centre has said Roo will need a private and secure garden, a smaller family and a quiet household so he can settle into his new life.

A spokesperson for the Stubbington Ark says: “This whorl wind will change your life in amazing ways but he will also be a bit of a project. Roo is an energetic boy who wants to join you on all your adventures and would make a great hiking companion.

“He has been great with his behaviour assessments here and so his new adopters will need to be happy to follow our guidance and continue his training. All adopters are entitled to three free months of behaviour support from our behaviour team.

“He absolutely loves his friends and wants to jump onto your lap and roll around. He will make the right person the bestest friend.”

Roo walks well on the lead and is muzzle trained but he may bark at other dogs if they get too close to him. His new owner will need to be happy to continue with consistent training as he has shown some resource guarding tendencies in his previous home.

Roo has been given a clean bill of health but is currently on behavioural medication. The adoption fee is £220 - for more information, click here.
