(near) PHOENIX, AZ: Roscoe is looking for a big break for his (potentially) last year of life. He's a delightful soul who deserves the love of a forever home. Roscoe was diagnosed with kidney failure and, although we can't say for certain how much time he has left, his time on earth will likely be shorter than it should be. Roscoe has some good people at his shelter who have taken him this far, and now he needs one final person to help him cross the finish line with dignity and love. PLEASE SHARE! 🏥
wrote, "Roscoe is an old man who came to our organization from a shelter in Texas. He had been there 10 months. He was previously living in a hoarding house situation since he was a puppy with his person, who went into a nursing home. Roscoe was transported to us in January of this year.
Roscoe is, quite simply, the best boy! He's a very easy going guy who loves to snooze on his bed most of the day. He's also very treat motivated! Treat time and chow times are his favorite parts of the day. He's very passionate about chow time and will let us know how excited he is, while we are making his bowl, by giving us his adorable hound dog bark until we give him his food. He also loves nice leisurely walks or 'sniffaris' as we call them. He doesn't break any land speed records on these walks but he does make sure to smell every inch of anything that catches his snout's interest. When he gets going, at a good pace, his ears fly out like the most charming little Dumbo you ever did see.
He would do best with older children and we have no doubt that he could coexist peacefully with cats. And there is not a single dog he doesn't get along with at camp.
Roscoe is, roughly, 10 years old, 40 pounds and a lowrider mix. Roscoe is in kidney failure and does require a home that understands he is a hospice dog and that they are there to help him to the end. We believe Roscoe could have a good year left in him.
If interested in adopting Roscoe, we would require the adopter to physically come to camp."
