I am getting him back.:-( I tell anyone that takes my rescues to bring them back to me if it doesn't work. The next home will be this guys 4th home! Poor Roscoe! he is a 3yr old Red Min Pin.. a little over weight. There is nothing wrong with the dog that gets him to go from home to home, But peoples lifestyles are changing,and not including him. The family that has him now, has had A LOT of things going on. And I thought for sure this was his forever home, as she had to move, and she Made sure she found a home where he could come. And since there, her cat got out,and got prego.. and I had to take her to the EVet, cause she wasn't having the babies.. she had to have a c-section, which there was only one HUGE baby boy (his name is Monster AKA momo) She has decided to keep the kitten. She had taken in a neglected Hairless Rat *Which I found out last night passed away of old age*, and her boyfriend brought in a Pit Puppy, that was 7weeks old :-/ I was NOT happy bout this. But, in the end she is very overwhelmed, and Roscoe is starting to have accidents in the house *Never did before now* She claims she takes him out to go, and then he comes in and goes.. And it is Always in the same spot. And she is frusterated cause she can't get him to stop. I told her to crate him... But she replys with.. " The puppy is in it,and we can't afford to get another crate right now" Well, I am getting the jist that she just doesn't have time nor money for this dog anymore. Or any dog.. But, her BF Won't let her rid of the puppy. But I am sure in time, I will have him too! :-( I am SOO Upset at this situation I could pull out my hair.

But ANYWAYS, I need to find him a new home. He is/was housebroken, Neutered, good with Kids,Cats,and dogs. *Before her he went to the dog park all the time*. I wouldn't recomend him around small animals, like rats, hampsters and such.. he is WAY too interested.. BUT If the family that took him, knew this.. and was willing to work on it.. or keep a eye on them, then that is fine. He is not one to bark *unless someone is at the door*, he doesn't destroy anything. He loves to sit in your lap,and give kisses. But, He needs someone patient, because of all the home switching, he may be aloof for a little while, till he trusts you.

I don't have any pics of him at the moment. But if any of you Floridians are looking for a new family member, or Know someone that is.. he needs someone. I may ask her to pay for his food and such, and bring him to my house.. so I can see more of his behavior.

Let me know!

Let me know when you get some pictures. It's easier to ask around that way.


Think my parents would buy the "we found him, can we keep him" story? Hahaha.

hahahaha He would LOVE your house! lol He ignores the puppy, and the puppy trys to play with him.. But I think maybe cause he knows he is a puppy.. The family before this, had a 2lb Min Pin Puppy Female. And they took him, because he was Sooooo good with her,and she LOVED Him. The lady that has him now, is a nurse and works graveyard shift.. and sleeps in the day. So, I am working on getting a pic of him. I am going to talk to my mom tonight, to see if she would mind him coming here till I found him a home.. We shall see how that goes. I think if she paid for his food for the time being, maybe my mom wouldn't mind. *shrugs*
