My story

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

Rosco IV is an owner surrender looking for a new home.



HI! My name is Rosco IV! I am a handsome 4 year old flashy brindle boy that is an owner surrender due to having seizures often and my owner is unable to afford the medications that I need to be started on to hopefully minimize them. I am described as friendly, shy, active, and nervous! I am kid and cat friendly! I tend to not like smaller dogs and haven't had much interaction with other larger dogs. I live with a one year old kid and do well with him but when I have my seizures my owner separates me for everyone's safety. I have also lived with two cats and do well with them too! I am house trained, crate trained, and at night I sleep in my own room. When the humans must be away, I am fine and normally just lay down and wait for them to return. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. I'm not a fan of playing in the water but love riding in the car, balls, playing fetch, squeaky toys, pup cups, blankets, belly rubs, taste testing new treats, running, and hard chew toys! My owner says that I am "a big goofball that is a sweet dog and just wants love!". If you think I would make a great addition to your family and are willing to help me begin the treatment I need for my seizures, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!
