Approximate Age: 2 years Approximate Weight: 46lbs Meet Roscoe! I'm your happy-go-lucky future best friend! I'm a goofy pup with basically one emotion... HAPPY! And yes, it's 24/7. I rarely stop smiling. I get along great with other dogs and can even be submissive if the situation calls for it. I walk great on a leash whether I'm strolling solo or hanging with dog friends. I've shown excellent potty habits in my foster home. I do well in my crate! I might whine or give a little bark at first, but I've also proven I can settle in nicely overnight on my foster's dog bed. I'm very treat motivated, which makes training fun and rewarding. I'm a smart boy and already know "sit" and "shake." When I get really excited, I sometimes stand on my back legs with my paws in the air like I'm cheering! I'm working on keeping all four paws on the floor - I just get excited easily. I get very excited when it's meal time and like to wait in the kitchen while it's being prepared. I prefer other dogs not come near while my food is being made (hey, it's my meal!), so it works best if I hang out in my crate until it's time to eat. If you're looking for a fun, joyful dog who will keep you smiling every day, I might be your perfect match! You can still come adopt me or even join our foster program to help the humans learn all the awesome things about new dogs like me! Learn more on our website!
