UPDATE (02.06.25) – Roofus was ADOPTED again and is now with a lovely family and 2 acres of land to play on! Congratulations, Roofus!
01.13.25 Update: Roofus was adopted for 24 hours, then returned. He is still waiting for his forever home.
Roofus is a 1.5 year old male German Shepherd who, as friendly as he is, unfortunately suffered a rough past. Animal Control was called to a scene where Roofus was found laying down on the side of a busy street, barely responsive by Sergeant Ponder. Originally, they thought that he was hit by a car. However, when he was taken as an emergency to the vet they noted that his pupils were extremely dilated, he was not able to walk, and they observed no physical injuries meaning the dog was drugged or poisoned. With no known owner, he arrived at the shelter and the health check team worked to keep fluids going to him and tried their best to help keep him stable, as everybody held their breath on whether or not he would make it. He even went agonal at one point, noted the Sergeant.
First days at the shelter were rough – he didn’t even use the bathroom on his own and could only eat food and couldn’t respond to sensations. Then, over the next few days, he started to try to lift his head, and then wobbly walked in short bursts, and then finally used the bathroom. Now, Roofus acts as if nothing happened to him, even though there is still a little evidence at this time that he is a bit sluggish, thanks to the team at AFV. Rocky sits in with Roofus not only to bring him much needed comfort from the tough path he led so far, but also to share a much deserved Thanksgiving meal.
