My name is Roger!

Meet Roger, our resilient two-year-old pittie mix with a heart full of love and a story of survival.

Before he ever reached the shelter, Roger was rescued from a heartbreaking situation—he had been living in a hotel room, confined in a crate with two other dogs. Despite all that, he remained gentle and kind, just waiting for someone to give him a chance.

When Roger landed on the euthanasia list at a local Orlando shelter, he was saved just in time. Within hours of being pulled, it was discovered that he was suffering from gastroenteritis, and he had to be rushed to the ER. After treatment and a week of care with one of our amazing medical fosters, Roger made a full recovery. His most recent bloodwork came back completely clear, and he’s now healthy, strong, and ready for his forever home.

Roger loves people of all ages, including kids, and is happiest when he’s around his humans. He’s still learning how to meet other dogs—he’s been with dogs before and shows potential—but for now, he would do best either as a solo dog or with slow, careful introductions.

This sweet, affectionate boy has been through so much and come out shining. He’s finally ready to experience the comfort and love of a forever home where he can truly relax and be adored for the wonderful dog he is. Roger is ready for his second chance at happiness.
