Meet Romeo

Meet Romeo! A spirited two-and-a-half-year-old English Pointer mix currently living in Carlsbad, CA, whose essence is a radiant bundle of devotion wrapped in a striking white coat adorned with black patches and playful spots. Romeo is a goofy, loving soul who thrives on companionship and showers his people with endless loyalty. Whether he’s trotting from room to room to keep tabs on his favorite humans or chasing his tail in pure comedic glory, Romeo lives to make his family smile! At around 40 pounds, he’s a perfectly medium-sized shadow who dreams of curling up near his caregiver’s feet after a fun round of indoor toy play. This sweet boy is house-trained, non-destructive, and knows several important commands such as sit, stay, come, heel, and leave it. His brilliance shines brightest when engaged in training sessions, especially since he comes with lifelong training support offered by his dedicated trainer within San Diego County. Romeo reacts well to positive reinforcement and truly enjoys working with people he trusts. Romeo’s protective side makes him deeply committed to his family’s safety. He is reactive to other dogs and wary of strangers, but with treats, patience, and structured introductions, he warms up – especially to women, who tend to win his trust faster. He’s done well around children aged 8-9 years old, particularly when kids understand the importance of giving him space when he needs it. He dreams of a calm, structured home with no other dogs, where his guardian will continue guiding him through his training journey. Fast-moving bicycles and unexpected dog encounters on walks can rattle him, but his training has built a strong foundation for confidence and improved focus. A secure fenced yard will help Romeo enjoy daily sniffing adventures and outdoor games safely. Romeo’s quirks, like his hilarious tail-chasing and constant need to check in with his humans, make him a truly endearing companion. Are you ready to welcome this affectionate, intelligent, and protective boy into your life and continue the joyful training journey that helps him flourish? To learn more about adopting Romeo and offering him the new loving home he needs, contact [email protected]! Could he be your next loyal best friend and shadow on all life’s quiet and goofy adventures?
