Roscoe - Chihuahua / Pomeranian / Mixed (long coat) Dog For Adoption

View more

ng as seven without any issues. Roscoe rides well in the car and walks nicely on a leash. Roscoe has an incredible long brindle coat that, with regular care, will be stunningly beautiful. He came to us from an unfortunate environment with a flea infestation allergy and since it went untreated so long, he also had a secondary skin bacterial problem which went untreated so long he had some "alligator" skin doing on in places, all of which has healed beautifully! Roscoe needed a round of antibiotic and we've continued a bi-weekly bath (which he is wonderful about) with shampoos specifically for itch relief and anti-inflammatory response which we will send with you if you remind us. We do leave the shampoo on for 10 minutes and then rinse and we have used a calming conditioner too. Perhaps, there will come a time in his future when so many shampoos are not necessary, but for us it's a small chore to continue his health and healing. Although our steps were not expensive, in our opinion, we would like him to go to a new home that won't mind some vet bills just in case he has a flare up again due to stress, etc. Now back to his personality - it's big! He is the ultimate lap and snuggle buddy and when I sit at the end of the day I try to find a soft or shiny blankie for my lap and he jumps up, on me, rolls around for a few minutes wagging and smiling (I swear) and then settles in for a nap. Although I just adore this little guy he needs someone that is available to him more than I am. He is not a barker. I'm trying to think of something negative to say about him and am struggling, but I'll keep thinking about it until I hear from some lucky person out there! Oh, need to mention that he has very sensitive feelings, He gets hurts/worried if he thinks he did something wrong or someone is angry at him. So, his ideal home will have a soft, friendly, aura.
