Roscoe - Mutt Male Dog For Adoption in Estherville, Iowa, USA

Dog Breed: Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat).

***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the adoption application at .emmetcountyanimalshelter*** Roscoe is a young, energetic, and affectionate dog looking for his forever home. Found abandoned as a puppy in the countryside, he’s been lovingly fostered and is now ready to find his family. Roscoe is athletic, playful, and gets along great with other dogs, making him the perfect companion for an active household! Roscoe can be shy when first meeting new people however he has shown such improvement in this area that he will likely adjust quite well with just a little patience. He has been accustomed to living on an acreage without a fence or being leashed up but because that won't be possible to do in a new home without leash/boundary training and Roscoe is still pretty frightened by a leash (for reasons unknown) we are requiring that his new home have a fenced yard so that he can have the freedom to go in and out without being leashed. We also have learned that Roscoe really does need a companion dog. He finds comfort and peace of mind having another dog to follow their lead. So a dog friendly, confident and gentle big brother or big sister is what he would like in his new home as well. Roscoe is silly, loving and playful. He needs a human that understands he just needs a bit of time and patience to open up and show them how wonderful he truly is! Roscoe is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and looking for a family who can match his energy and give him the love and attention he deserves. The pups were likely born early summer 2024 and are altered, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. Their adoption fee is $300.00
