About Memphis

Hi, Memphis here! ��Z'� I'm not really sure how to explain myself without sounding a little full of myself, so I'm just going to say it! I'm kind of a big deal around here! ���%8F My foster mom says I'm excited, loving, and wiggly. I say I'm FUN! ��%A4� I'm the girl who wants to know what YOU are doing at all times. ���'� Going outside? I'm coming. Going inside? Me too. Sitting down? Excellent, I'll be sitting with you. Going to another room? Absolutely not without me! I'm a Velcro girl. I like my people A LOT. �%9D%A4��%8F But don't get me wrong, I'm not just a walking tornado. ��λ��%8F I actually have an off switch! ��Zs��%8F I can spend the morning zooming ��լ around the yard, chasing my tennis ball, ��Z%BE throwing my own ball and then chasing it because apparently I have decided I don't need anyone else to play fetch with, and jumping into the pool because WATER IS FUN! ��դ��'ە�%8F Then five minutes later, I'll be stretched out on the floor beside you because swimming is exhausting. According to Memphis law, there is a time for zoomies and a time for snuggles. �ٴ� My absolute favorite thing might be my people. I LOVE getting pets and snuggles, especially from my foster family's kids. After I've gotten my morning potty break and run around the yard, I love sitting with the kids while they pet me. I'll put my big head right in your lap, lean my entire body against you, and soak up every second of attention. �����%8F And if you stop petting me? Well�'�| I will simply lean harder. It's a Rottweiler thing. You wouldn't understand. ���� My butt also deserves an honorable mention. It wiggles. A LOT. Sometimes I'm pretty sure my butt gets somewhere before the rest of me does. ��%8D� Another Rottweiler thing! I'm house trained, I ride nicely in the car, ��s� I walk well with my harness and a little guidance, and I'm crate trained-ish. ��ǣ Meaning I understand that my crate is safe, and I do great once I'm in there. Getting in there? ���� Well, that requires a small negotiation and preferably a treat tossed inside. ���%8F I know SIT, and I'm currently studying for my WAIT certification. I'm also working on not jumping on people when I meet them because apparently a hug from an enthusiastic Rottweiler isn't everyone's idea of a proper introduction. Who knew? �٪� I'm learning better manners, too. I can occasionally be a little grabby with food, and I've been known to do some random counter surfing. Not constantly. Just enough to keep everyone humble. ���� My favorite things include: ��Z%BE Tennis balls ��Z%BE Kong balls ���| Swimming ��θ Running around outside ��s ��%8Fȉ'�%8D��'ە�%8F Walks �٤� Toys �٤%A0 Food puzzles �%9D%A4��%8F Being with my people ���� And dramatically flopping onto the floor when I decide playtime is over I'm also perfectly capable of entertaining myself. Give me a Kong or a food toy, and I'm good to go. �����%8F I don't need another dog in my forever home. I'm a people girl. I'd be happy with a doggy sibling, but I'm also completely content being your one and only spoiled Rottie princess. ���� My dream family? ���� Someone who understands that I'm basically an everything bagel in Rottweiler form. �ٴ� I've got a little bit of everything! I'm active and always ready for a walk, a game of fetch, a good round of zoomies, or an impromptu pool party. ���|��Z%BE But I'm also perfectly happy to come inside, flop onto the floor, stick my giant head in your lap, and soak up some serious snuggles. I don't need a family who is constantly on the go, ��s� and I don't need someone who wants a couch potato. �ٴ� I need someone who wants both. I've loved every kid I've met over 12, and I think I could do wonderfully with kids. Since I'm still learning that people don't necessarily want to be greeted with a full body Rottie launch, ��s'� older kids would probably be the better fit right now unless someone has experience managing a big, enthusiastic dog. ���� I may still have some things to learn. I may occasionally surf the counter. I may need a treat to enter my crate. I may greet you like I haven't seen you in 14 years even though you literally just walked into the kitchen. But I promise you this. �ٴ� You will never wonder if I love you. I will show you. With my giant Rottie lean, My head in your lap, My ridiculous wiggle butt, My Rottie snorts, My goofy antics, My morning snuggles, My tennis ball obsession, And my giant personality that makes me completely unforgettable. �%9D%A4��%8F I'm Memphis. I'm goofy. I'm affectionate. I'm playful. I'm loyal. I'm a shadow. I'm a swimmer. I'm a class clown. And I'm VERY ready to find the people who are going to love every ridiculous, wonderful thing about me. So�'�| are you my people? �ٴ� https://www.realrottweilerrescue.com/dogs/memphis-jffa
