We are heartbroken to share that Ruadhán (Rú) is in need of a new forever home as I was unfortunately allergic to the point where it was unmanageable. Rú has been an integral part of our family, and while it’s incredibly difficult to let him go, we want to find him a loving home where he can continue to thrive.
About Ruadhán:
Personality and Behaviors:
– Affectionate and Cuddly: Rú loves lounging on the couch or bed, enjoying any soft spot he can find. He’s always up for cuddles and enjoys being close to his humans.
– Gentle with People: Rú is very gentle with humans, he’s great with new people and quickly becomes comfortable with them.
– Reactive on Leash: Rú can be reactive on a leash when he sees another dog and can try to slip out of his harness.
– Food Motivated: Extremely motivated by food, Rú loves treats and can be easily trained with them.
– Muzzle Trained: Rú is happy to wear a muzzle when necessary, and he should definitely wear one around small dogs and in the dog park.
– Travel: Rú travels well in a car for the most part, he can be nervous and sometimes get sick or pee on long journeys.
– Energy Levels: Rú has bursts of energy and loves running, walking, hiking, and the dog park. He is also a couch potato who enjoys relaxing.
– Social with Other Dogs: He is happy to live with other dogs and bonds pretty quickly.
– Strong and Playful: Rú is very strong and enjoys playtime, and would need someone who can handle walking him.

Rú is a smart, quick learner who is very alert and notices small animals from a distance. He’s a loving companion who needs a home that can accommodate his strength and energy levels.
