Roscoe Mixed Breed Rochester, MN

Meet Roscoe, a smart and curious dog who's eager to bond with his forever family. He loves spending time with his foster brothers-two cats-when they allow it, and enjoys playtime with his foster brother, a big dog. His absolute favorite activity is chasing after his beloved green soccer ball, and he could do it for hours!

Roscoe is a loyal companion who loves to be close to his people. He'll follow you from room to room, whether it's upstairs to the office or downstairs for a coffee break, always happy to stay by your side and relax at your feet.

Roscoe would thrive with someone experienced with timid dogs, as he can be a stand off and fearful due to his rough start in life. He has been returned before due to biting out of fear, but his bites aren't out of aggression-they stem from his guarded nature around strangers. It doesn't take long for him to get past this initial fear and bond deeply with new people, but he'll need a patient and dedicated adopter to help him feel secure while he works through his anxieties.

Don't let this stop you from considering Roscoe! After just one week in his foster home, he settled in and blossomed into a completely different dog. Once he feels comfortable, it's incredibly rewarding to see his playful personality and gentle demeanor shine through.

His gentle heart bonds best with females, though he's comfortable with males after some time to get to know them. While he's not a fan of kennels, we're working on it, and he'd love to be the kind of dog who snuggles in bed with you at night if you're looking for a cuddle partner.

Since Roscoe can be a bit nervous around kids, he'd do best in a home without young children or with dog-savvy older kids.

If you're looking for a loyal, playful friend who adores fetch and being around his people, Roscoe is your guy! He thrives in a home filled with love and attention, and he's fantastic with other dogs, making him the perfect addition to a multi-dog household.
