About dogs named Rolo

The following are 18 profiles of dogs named Rolo from our database of 56 dogs with the name Rolo.

• “Hi! I’m Rolo 🐾 I’m a German Shepherd/Husky mix who loves exploring and meeting new friends. I can be a little nervous when first meeting other dogs, but I’m a confident, respectful pup. I’m very submissive and take my time warming up, but once I’m comfortable my playful side comes out! I do best with patient dogs who understand my slower introductions.“

  — Holley B.

• “Rolo is my name and barking is the game. When my mom isn’t near me or petting me I bark to get her attention because I want to be inside moms skin that’s my only goal. However if I’m given the opportunity I will sneak over to the neighbors to bark at them for being POS since day one. I don’t like other dogs because I’m the only one anyone needs to love. I’m the only teddy bear who makes you cry and smile at the same time.“

  — Brittany P.

• “Rolo is from the Peruvian Amazon, he was abandoned at birth and survived the first three months alone in the deep jungle before he was rescued by one of our dear friends. He is the sweetest boy, very emotional and smart.“

  — Julia W.

• “I’m a ~2y/o border collie/cattle mix with the sweetest personality and a TON of energy. I’ve recently developed some fear-based issues around other dogs and am working on them, but in the meantime looking for some safe places to explore!“

  — Sarah F.

• “Hi I’m Rolo a big bouncy chocolate Labrador, who likes to keep Mum and Dad on their toes!“

  — Margaret S.

• “We took in Rolo when he was 2 years old, and about 30lbs over weight! When we first brought Rolo home he refused to walk and would lay down and wait to be carried. If he could eat all day and never leave the couch he would! 😂. Now we have him in mostly good shape (who doesn’t gain a few pounds over the winter), and try to get out more. He is incredibly affectionate towards people, and does not have many of those typical Shiba qualities except for the Shiba Inu scream when he wants something.“

  — Madison P.

• “Woof Woof! Hi I’m Rolo I’m really shy and love to sniff! I really love to jump over things and chase squirrels!“

  — Barbara A.

• “I love to run, fetch, swim, and explore! I love me some veggies they make the best treat for me!“

  — Leah W.

• “A couple years ago, I ended up on the streets of Stockton. I don’t remember how long I was homeless, but I was taken to the shelter in Stockton. A nice lady rescued me and spent several months looking for a family who would understand my need to “do stuff”. I now live with my mom and dad in Livermore. Mom spends a lot of time teaching me stuff, like manners, silly tricks, and best of all, nose work. I like to snuggle with dad and share his snacks. There are many rude and mean dogs in my neighborhood, so walks can be scary.“

  — Stephanie J.

• “Rolo is the sweetest girl. She loves to snuggle and learn. She is a people pleaser and loves to learn new things! She is very observant and learns quickly.“

  — Jenni M.

• “Woooof! I moved to Oregon with my momma Mori as a puppy. I’m a big girl now but my parents still call me baby Rolo sometimes, or forever puppy because they thought I would be bigger. I love other doggies and people so much. I’ve had lots of training to be a good girl. I know at least 20 commands. I get to go to lots of places with my family. I love to play with others and spend a lot of time chasing, running or wrestling with momma Mori. She doesn’t like to play fetch with me but it’s one of my favorite things to do with my parents. I like to dig too because I can smell everything underground, especially the peanuts the squirrels leave me in our yard. And don’t get me starting on sticks, twigs and logs, oh boy! There are so many of them from our tree Doug and when we go camping. I also like to play alone by tossing things into the air.“

  — Sara Y.

• “🐾 Hi! I’m Rolo! I’m a little guy who can be a bit… very excited when I meet a new dog. 😅 Sometimes I bark a lot at first because I get nervous and excited at the same time. But once I’m comfortable, I’m a totally different guy! I love to play, run around and sniff everything. I’m also a big fan of exploring new places, going on sniffy adventures, and finding the perfect sunny spot for a good sunbath. ☀️🌿 I’m scared of big dogs, so I feel happiest with small or similar-sized dogs who let me take things slowly. Basically, I’m a curious little explorer who loves nature, sunshine, good sniffing spots and making friends once I’ve had a chance to warm up. ❤️ •••••••••••••• 🐾 Salut ! Moi, c'est Rolo ! Je suis un p'tit gars qui peut être un peu… ben excité quand je rencontre un nouvel ami chien. 😅 Parfois, j'aboie beaucoup au début parce que je suis à la fois nerveux et excité. Mais une fois que je suis à l'aise, je deviens un tout autre chien ! J'adore jouer, courir partout et tout renifler. J'aime aussi beaucoup explorer de nouveaux endroits, partir à l'aventure pour faire des sniffaris et trouver le coin ensoleillé idéal pour une bonne sieste au soleil. ☀️🌿 J'ai peur des gros chiens ; je suis donc plus heureux en compagnie de petits chiens ou de chiens de ma taille qui me laissent avancer à mon rythme. En résumé, je suis un p'tit explorateur curieux qui aime la nature, le soleil, les bons coins à sentir et me faire des amis une fois que j'ai eu le temps de me mettre en confiance. ❤️“

  — Paméla C.

• “Hello I am a four year old pibble cross. I love chasing balls, playing frisbee and grazing on delicious grass. I live in an apartment so I don't get to be off leash as much as I'd like, which is why Sniffspot is great for me!“

  — Ellen H.

• “Rolo loves all people, dogs and animals. A springy, older/middle aged pup, he loves the woods and open space, his favorite things are hiking, snuggling and car rides.“
