About Roscoe

Meet Roscoe, a sweet Chihuahua mix around 3 and a half years old and weighing about 12 pounds. Roscoe found himself in need of a new home after his previous owner, unable to keep him in their elderly housing, had to surrender him. Fortunately, he was rescued just in time, and you can feel the gratitude from his owner, who was relieved to know he’s now in good hands. Roscoe is an affectionate little companion who adores being held and sitting in laps. He gets along well with other dogs and has a friendly disposition towards everyone he meets. He’s walked on a leash with ease and shows great potential as a family dog. While he currently wears a service dog vest, we do not have certification documentation — he might be a prime candidate for someone interested in pursuing that route. Fully house trained and crate trained, Roscoe would love a cozy bed next to you more than anything else. A fenced yard would be great, but it’s not a must. He is neutered and up to date on vaccinations, ready for a new adventure with a loving family. If you're searching for a loving companion to share your life with, don’t hesitate to apply!
