Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Cowboy is a purebred male adult rottweiler who found himself on death row at the pound. We could see how gentle and sweet he was the first time we met him and we couldn't possibly let him die. He was with a female rottweiler who we named Dixie. They were both malnutrition to the point that you could count their ribs by just looking at them and their hip bones were poking out. He has been in rescue now for a few weeks and he has put on the weight he was needing. We had to split the couple up because we did not have a foster home that could take both. Cowboy does not live with any other animals, however his foster dad takes him to the bark park on a regular basis and he does very well with all of the dogs there. He currently lives in foster care with a 6 year old boy who he does terrific with.He deals with his energy level just fine. He is very tolerant and gentle. He will make some family proud to call him their own! Cowboy is neutered, up to date on his shots and microchipped. Dixie has already been adopted.
