en suddenly, spots of joy come bounding your way. That's Roscoe, your future best friend! Roscoe isn't just any dog; he's a walking, barking sundae cone with his wonderful white coat sprinkled with black jimmies. His tail wags to the beat of love and excitement, painting smiles wherever he goes. This boylikes treats, but LOVES the toys! In a world full of ordinary pets, Roscoe stands out not just for his unique look but for his heart that's brimming with affection. This cheerful pup is on a quest, not for the juiciest bone, but for a family in need of a dog named Roscoe. His ideal day? That's simple: sharing laughs, embarking on adventures in the backyard, or snuggling up for some cozy nap times. A note from Roscoe's Volunteer Rescue Buddy, Andrea: "When I decided to meet Roscoe, it was love at first sight! Roscoe is so smart and so kind. He has grown so much living at Paws Crossed. He works so hard to make his human people happy. All he wants is to be a good boy and make his humans proud. He gets very excited, happy and even scared and anxious. But he really works so hard to control those emotions and to learn to trust. When I first started walking Roscoe he would get so scared easily, scared of bikes, new people, noises. I think he still gets a little scared, but knows he is safe and how to control his emotions. Treats help a lot. Roscoe is very treat focused. He isn't picky either! He no longer reacts to bikes, he actually doesn't even notice them. He is a dream on the leash and loves a long walk. He is the best walking partner. He will always walk at the speed you want. He likes it when I talk to him during the walk. He likes to be engaged and to know I am there. Roscoe knows so many commands now too - sit, down, stay and look. He will also take a treat so gently from volunteers and always sits first. Then he is so proud of himself. It does take some time for Roscoe to build trust. He doesn't have a lot of volunteers that walk him, but the ones he does have love him so much and vice versa. One of my favorite things about Roscoe is that I truly believe he looks out for me on our walks. He always goes extra slow when it's rainy or snowy and when we are on a hill. I can use him as a brace, so I don't fall. He has never pulled me, ever! In the warm weather he loves to walk in the stream, but always goes in, so slow, so I do not get pulled in. Roscoe also loves a cuddle and pet on the couch. I call it Couch Time and he gets so excited. He showers me with kisses. When Roscoe feels he is in a stressful situation he looks up at me and I know he is asking for his squeaky, plastic football toy. When he has that toy in his mouth, he is relaxed and feels safe. It would be important to have plenty of soft, squeaky plastic dog toys for him. Ones he can put pressure into without breaking. They help his anxiety! Stuffy toys are no match for him! Roscoe would need an owner with patience in the beginning. He is the best buddy to chat to if you are having a rough day or just need to get something off your chest. I know he listens to me." Ready for doggie playdates and all the love you can give, Roscoe promises to sprinkle a little extra happiness into your life. Will your home be the one he fills with joy? Dive into a world of tail wags, play, and endless cuddles. Roscoe's ready. Are you? Walk-ins are welcome! Stop by during our open hours to meet our available dogs!! Before you can adopt, please complete an adoption questionnaire on our website at pawscrossedny/dog-adoption-questionnaire. If you have any questions, please email us at adoptionspawscrossedny for more information. Please understand that we cannot hold any pets. All adoptions are done on a first come, first adopt basis for pre-approved applicants. The Shelter software system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of our dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We encourage you to select your new companion by considering each dog's individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on a breed label that is only a guess.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
