My story

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

Roscoe is a 1.5 year old Chihuahua in need of the right home. He has been through quite a bit in the past few months. Barely surviving an attack from another dog who left him with a punctured lung, broken ribs and a leg injury just in itself makes him a dog that everyone can love. But he needs more that just love. Roscoe is in need of that special person who can understand his fear of other dogs. He needs someone who needs him for comfort and companionship. A home with no or older children would be best. He does not do well with other dogs (I can't blame him one bit), he is unsure about cats but with time he may learn to love them!! Despite Roscoe's injuries he is very active, it is hard to keep him in his kennel where he must spend most of his time so he can fully heal. He is however able to spend more and more time with his foster family outside of his kennel as he is getting stronger. His favorite thing to do is snuggle on the sofa with us. Roscoe has been working on potty training, after over a month in the kennel this seems to be a skill he needs to work on again but he is getting better everyday. Because of Roscoe's delicate situation I will be visiting all potential adopter's home for a meet and greet with the family. If you feel you can give Roscoe all that he needs please e-mail Ria at riaroe77@gmail.com for more information.
