Roscoe

My story

ADOPTION FEE: $575 Meet Roscoe! This adorable man was returned to the shelter due to no fault of his own. He has now come to Colorado in hopes of finding his forever home! FROM THEIR FOSTER!: 4/23 . Rosco is such a loving and caring dog. He plays like there is no tomorrow. He has been super loving showing his lover boy side recently. When you come home from a bad day at work he will show you everything is okay. He is truly a gem and one of a kind. Crate training; we have stopped crying in the kennel completely putting a blanket below him is the best thing to do since it keeps him calm but will let you know right when you wake up to take him outside lol. He has picked up from my puppy and my senior that crate time is sleep time for sure. Accidents in the home have slowed down but it can still be a challenge waiting out for him to just use the bathroom. He recalls pretty amazingly when it’s time to go inside. Anyone will be lucky to have Rosco as their puppy and bestie 4/8: Roscoe has truly been a joy to have! Super protective in a good way. He is super playful and loves to talk. He has been able to take cues from my older pitbull of when playtime is and when it ends. I have noticed he loves to play with other dogs but when it’s just play time with me and him he doesn’t really know how to play alone. (Which I feel like he would do amazing in a home that has dogs already). Tends to love playing with his dog bowl. He has been sleeping in a crate which he is getting used to day by day. He will let out occasional cries and whines but being patient and not giving in is a must. I have learned putting a blanket over his crate has decreased the amount of puppy cries and Me as the human being super quiet for about 10-15 minutes. Future adopters will have to focus on leash skills. Being patient with his pulling I’ve been using the stop and wait method. Showing I am in charge not him. He does great on loose leash but if you need to have him close to you (someone walking past or dogs) keeping him close by has been a bit of a struggle if we are walking. But waiting in the same spot he does great and will sit as well. We did see some kiddos and he stayed calm he was super curious but did not bark or react in anyway. This giant doesn’t realize he is a giant lol so reminding him to be gentle has been given Knows sit and caught on a bit to lay down. LOVES TREATS He has been able bit of a cuddle bug. Loves to give kisses and a few love nibbles. People manners need to be worked on a bit but he will benefit from redirection.  More socialization time is for sure needed with humans but taking it slow and not rushing anything would be best for him. He would do best with someone who is super active has a lot of energy and wants to be running and playing 24/7. Overall if I didn’t have 2 of my own already Roscoe would be coming home with me lol. Who ever gets the young fellow will have an amazing dog.  A true Bestfriend. From his amazing foster 3/28: Roscoe is the happiest baby hippo. He has big puppy energy and also loves to snuggle. He is instant best friends every being he meets. He loves children and other animals! Roscoe has been working on potty training and is getting better every day. He loves munching an ice cube and laying in the grass.

We are a foster-based rescue and generally do not have pups available to meet at our office except during adoption events on Saturdays. Not every dog attends every adoption event. Interested in this pup? The first step is to complete our online application by clicking the "Apply for Adoption" button. Please note that we are only able to finalize adoptions at events for approved adopters. The earlier you apply, the better as it takes time to review and approve applications. We host adoption events almost every Saturday from 11:00am to 2:00pm at Petco in Fort Collins (2211 S College Ave. STE 200, Fort Collins, CO 80525)! Check our Instagram and/or Facebook page for info on where we will be hosting adoptions this weekend! All Aboard Animal Rescue saves dogs and puppies from high-kill shelters in other states. These pups are brought to Colorado, where they are required to be spayed or neutered - breaking the cycle of unwanted litters of puppies who end up as strays! Please consider supporting us in this mission by adopting, fostering, volunteering, or donating.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Roscoe, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
