Roscoe (Nashville TN) is ready for his FurEver Home! 3 years old & 90 lbs (Gentle Giant) Up to date on ALL vaccinations Microchipped HW neg/on preventative Crate Trained & Potty Trained Good with other dogs (submissive), cats, ducks, chickens and bigger livestock. Incredibly shy at first but he is a protector (non aggressive shepherd) and hard lover. Don't let Roscoe's size deter you, he is very laid back, low energy and loves walks. He is new to leash walking, so he does need to have his harness, so he doesn't pull you down. He is a strong boy, but listens well when called to ease, during a walk. He gets excited when going outside or seeing a squirrel but doesn't chase. He will take a treat from you, when you ask him to sit and is so gentle while doing so. Roscoe loves tummy scratches, laying on the porch during morning coffee and being brushed. His favorite is ear scratches! His FurEver family would be so blessed to have this big snuggle bug! If interested in Roscoe, please fill out an application and he would love to meet you/your family! Fill out the application at: https://www.australianshepherdsfurever.org/adoption-application There is an additional $20 microchip fee which includes registration and transfer to his new furever family. All adoption fees are used for future rescue efforts.

Story

Hi I’m Naudia Kingstons original owner. Kingston will be 5 on November 15th. He’s a loving dog. I ended up having a baby 2 years ago and just feel like I don’t have the time to spend with Kingston anymore. Looking for someone with an absolute love for pitbulls being they’re not the most loved dogs. I do have insurance on him, which I’m sure can be switched over to ensure he gets the healthcare he needs.

Ozzy

Doberman Pinscher

Male, Adult

Antioch, TN

Size

(when grown) Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)

Details

Good with dogs, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

I have had him since he was 7-8 months old. He has AKC papers with Excellent Bloodlines. His AKC Name is Ozzy Prince of the Abyss. He is almost 4. Raised with my wife and 3 daughters. He’s a great dog. If you’re not used to dealing with alpha/bully breed dog, he is probably not for you. He needs supervision around small kids under 12. He has been around nephews 7-8 years old with out me around and never a problem. We have had other dogs visit our home and there was never a problem. He need attention and exercise. He knows simple commands and hand gestures. He is well socialized because I raised him that way. He wants you pet him and he’s eager to please. He just needs a good home with someone that can love on him and give him the attention he needs. I would not recommend him for 1st time owners of an alpha breed not unless you are sure you know how to be the alpha otherwise he will try to dominate your home. That just the way the breed is instinctively.
