Three years is far too long for a good dog to wait. Roscoe is still hoping someone finally chooses him. Roscoe is a handsome, loyal boy who has spent the last three years waiting for a chance at a real home. Found abandoned and scared, he was given a second chance by someone who patiently earned his trust and brought him to safety. Since then, he’s been living in boarding while waiting for the right person to see his potential. Roscoe was born around November 2021 and weighs about 77 pounds. Once Roscoe trusts you, he is a total cuddle bug who loves belly rubs and affection. He enjoys playing with squeaky toys, running around with his favorite ball, and engaging in a good game of fetch. Roscoe will need a patient, experienced adopter who can help him decompress and continue building confidence. He can be nervous with new people at first and needs time to warm up, but with consistency and reassurance he learns quickly and wants to please his handler. Roscoe would do best in: An adult-only home or older children A home with an experienced dog owner A structured environment where he can continue training A single-dog household where he can be the center of attention Despite everything he has been through, Roscoe still has so much love to give. With the right person willing to invest a little patience, he has the potential to become an incredibly loyal companion. After three years waiting, Roscoe deserves a couch, a routine, and someone who will finally call him family. Roscoe is currently being fostered in Texas and will be transported to their adopter. We have transports departing each week. +++++++ ADOPTION APPLICATION: https://petsave.formstack.com/forms/petsave_adoption_application +++++++ The Truth About Rescue: Every rescue pup is a work in progress — and that’s the beauty of it. None of them come wrapped in a bow, ready-made or mistake-free. They come with stories, quirks, and hearts that have seen a lot but still choose to trust again. Adoption isn’t about perfection; it’s about presence. Showing up for them, every day, until they know they’re finally home. That’s when you’ll see them bloom — soft and steady — into the very best version of themselves. And somewhere along the way, you’ll realize they were never the only one being rescued. +++++++ Once we have received your application, we will review and reach out to set-up an interview with one of our volunteers! If you have additional questions, please email us at SaintMuttsInquiries@gmail.com. Note: As with all of our rescues, we recommend homes with children 10 years and over to ensure the best fit for both the pets and families involved.
