At 2 years and 8 months old, Roscoe has spent far too much of his young life waiting. This 52-pound boy has grown up inside shelter walls, where he’s become known as one of the “long-timers.” While many dogs come and go, Roscoe has been overlooked time and time again, and it’s a mystery why. In person, he is strikingly handsome, with eyes full of hope and a spirit that shines brightest when he’s with people who care.
One of Roscoe’s favorite places is the shelter pond. There, he splashes and plays alongside the other dogs, soaking in those rare moments of freedom. He’s the perfect age, not a wild puppy, but still young enough to burst with energy when the moment calls for it. After playtime, Roscoe is just as happy to stretch out, relax, and enjoy a good snuggle.
What makes him unforgettable, though, is his sweetness. Roscoe is a hugger. He leans in close, wrapping his paws gently around you as if to say, please don’t forget about me. What he wants more than anything is simple: stability, love, and a couch to call his own.
Roscoe has been patient, but he has waited long enough. This gentle soul is ready for a forever family who will see him not as a shelter dog, but as the loyal companion he was meant to be.
Could you be the home Roscoe has been hoping for? His loving heart and hopeful eyes are waiting to meet you.
