About Rosco

Meet Rosco! This playful one-year-old Rottweiler mix is packed with love and personality. Rosco combines affectionate and easygoing traits, making him the perfect companion. He enjoys playing with his furry friends and exploring his toys but equally loves to curl up on the couch for some cozy snuggles afterward. He's wonderful with other dogs, adores cats, and is great with kids. In fact, Rosco has exhibited a protective instinct by stepping in when one of the kids needed support, showcasing his gentle and caring nature. This charming fellow comes with a solid set of skills: he's house trained, having learned to ring a bell when he needs to go outside. He's also crate trained and settles nicely when left alone. When it comes to walking on leash, he prances like a little deer, making outings a joy! Rosco is generally a quiet guy; he only barks when he needs to go out or gets excited during playtime. Rosco's smart and treat-motivated, excelling at commands like sit, and he’s a big fan of belly rubs and car rides. Instead of barking when someone arrives, he calmly observes the commotion, earning him the title of the household supervisor rather than the alarm. Rosco is ready to transition from his loving foster home to a forever family, where he can enjoy adventures and all the joys of being a cherished pet.
