My story

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

Meet Roscoe! Unfortunately we are looking to rehome our senior dog (12 yrs old). We adopted him almost a year ago after his owner passed and unfortunately it's not working out with our cats. He is great with other dogs and people but has showed a lot of aggression towards cats. We have had to put him in a crate when leaving the house to ensure the safety of the cats and that led to an injury with his mouth as you can see in one of the photos. He got his teeth stuck on the cage of the crate. We cannot afford the scans to see what the issue is but he doesn't seem to be in pain and eats dry and wet food without any issue. He has continued his aggression towards the cats post injury and we can no longer keep him in a crate so we are looking for a more suitable home for him. The only other issues would be slight hearing loss so you need to raise your voice for him to hear you. Please help this sweet, gentle, old man live out his remaining years in a safe and suitable environment.
