My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Roscoe is a very timid but very sweet boy. You see he came from a hoarding situation (100 dogs) and he just isn't used to human contact. He has come a long way in the 5 weeks since we have had him. He loves his foster mom and her dogs. But he is still very scared of new people. It has taken a while but he gives kisses and receives them. He seeks human contact once he trusts you but can still be scared by noises. He is learning to walk on leash and although making progress, he needs to learn some trust. He will require a special home that is willing to work with him and give him time to learn and trust with a lot of patience that sees his potential. Given time he will be a big lover boy. I would say the right home is not one with very small kids due to quick movements and noise, but he loves his foster sister she is 13, so older kids would be good for him. Other dogs will be okay and he doesn't pay any attention to the kitty. He is not potty trained but his foster mom takes him out all the time so there have been no accidents so far. He will need patience and diligence in that area. Remember, he has never lived inside. He is neutered, microchipped, utd on shots and dewormed.
