My story

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


Rosco is a male German Shepherd mix. We also believe he might have some Doberman in him as well! We rescued him from the LHS when he was 8 weeks old. I saw him advertised on the local Lexington news & I knew we just had to have him! He turned a year old on December 27th & we have owned him for a little over a year. He is an incredibly smart, loving, protective, fast, big dog who LOVES to run & fetch after tennis balls. He loves walks, running, eating his dog food, licking leftover food off the ground, playing with chew toys, finding sticks, catching flies, laying in the grass, being in the sunshine, & taking care of his owners. He has been so good to us & we adore him. We are looking for a dog lover to adopt him permanently & want to know that he can be in his forever home safely. A few months ago, we started noticing some aggressive tendencies in certain situations. More information can/will be shared privately. He's an amazing dog & we are hoping to find someone great for him.
