My story

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

Hey there, My name is Roscoe!! I am a 1 1/2 year old and 50 pound tri-paw Great Pyrenees /Lab mix. A very kind woman noticed me chained to a tree day after day, a spot I spent most of my time as my elderly owner could no longer properly care for me. The kind woman was able to talk my owner into giving me a fresh start with a family that could offer the love and exercise I so badly wanted, so here I am, looking for that happy ending. When I went into rescue, the vet discovered a leg injury that was inoperable and my back hind right leg had to be amputated.
Sometimes people look at me with pity, but I wish I could tell them its better now that I'm not in constant pain. And don't get me wrong, having 4 legs was pretty cool, but my disability doesn't slow me down. I still love walks, hikes, soaking up the sun in a kiddie pool, and playing with pups, kids, and even kitties too. If you want to feel sorry for someone, pity humans. God only gave them two legs, after all. I know now that I'm living in a fabulous foster home what life is supposed to be like, and I know theres people out there that truly need me. If I can wake up everyday happy and grateful for a new chance at life even after all that I've endured, I know I can bring that same joy and hope into a family thats in need of some pup love. To my future family, if you're reading this, please give me chance. I promise to be the best boy ever and that my disability will show you how much joy there is in life no matter what the challenges. We'll conquer anything together. 🐾❤️

This dog will be ready to leave our care in time for CPR's Triple Event Weekend! CPR will be at PetValu in Southbury on Friday September 21st from 2-6pm. Saturday, September 22nd, CPR will be at PetSmart in Plainville from 10am-2pm. Lastly CPR will be hosting an open house on Sunday, September 23rd, at the adoption center located at 522 N. Georges Hill Rd in Southbury from 10a-1pm. PRE-APPROVAL is REQUIRED to bring home a pup from SUNDAY'S event. You can apply while you are there, but the application will not be processed the same day. If you are not pre-approved, you are still welcome to come and meet pups at the event!

The adoption fee is $425 which includes spay/neuter, up to date vaccinations, flea/tick and heartworm preventatives, and the mandatory CT HB 5368 fee. This dog tested positive for heartworms and has been treated in our care.

If you are a MA resident, your new family member is required to go through a mandatory 48 hour quarantine period at our Woburn MA isolation facility. Your new family member will be dropped off by our transport on Thursday and will be ready for you to pick him/her up on Saturday between 10am-Noon. An additional $100 fee will be added for any dogs picked up from the Woburn MA quarantine facility. This additional fee is necessary in order to comply with MA Order 405-CD-12 and Order 1-AHO-05.
