***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the adoption application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org*** 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…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.

How adopting Roscoe works

Emmet County Animal Shelter decides every adoption: its application, its fee, its home check and its timing. Everybarn only shows this animal on the rescue's behalf, takes no payment and passes no messages.
