rosco

Rosco has already been through more than most dogs ever should, but you’d never know it from the joy in his smile. This resilient little Boston Terrier survived the heartbreaking loss of not one, but two owners who passed away. An independent rescuer in Bakersfield took him in, but with too many dogs already in her care, she reached out to our team so Rosco could finally find the forever home he truly deserves. We’re really hoping the third time’s a charm for this special guy.

Rosco is 6 years old and weighs 16 pounds. He’s incredibly sweet, friendly, and loves attention and pets. He has wonderful manners, is very patient, and greets people with the cutest smile. He enjoys exploring, is doing great pottying on his walks, and is not reactive on a leash. Rosco is also easy going, gentle and does great with other dogs and kids.

Fixed, vaccinated, and microchipped, Rosco is ready for a final loving and stable home to call his own!

More from his foster:
Roscoe is a sweet, calm dog with so much love to give. He loves to be snuggled up next to people or buried under blankets. He enjoys going for walks and is sweet with every person he meets.
