More on Roscoe:
Hey there, how are ya? The name’s Roscoe and I am so glad to be here at PawsCo where my friends are going to help me find a forever family. I came from a pretty scary situation and when some good samaritans found me on the side of the road in Colorado, I couldn’t really walk. The doctors think I have some neurological damage that makes my brain not talk to my back legs like it used to. But I’ve already come a long way in my foster home and I’m doing a lot better. I still kind of trot along, but get around pretty well… and my foster mom says my walk just makes me cuter! Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I’m a super sweet guy who wants love and attention from my people. I mean, I seriously love people. They’re always petting me and giving me treats. What’s not to love? Sometimes I follow them around and occasionally stop to give them “puppy-dog eyes,” even though I’m not a puppy anymore. I get along okay with other dogs, too.
