Roscoe is an 85 lb, 4 year old Dane, Shepherd, Boxer mix. His foster family also calls him part tiger because of his beautiful brindle coat. He is a very sweet big boy who enjoys scratches and stiting with his humans on the couch or at their feet. He came to us because he was surrendered to a shelter and we just can't understand why anyone wouldn't want this big cuddle bug. He greets his people when they come home with a whole butt wag with is little nubby tail! He is great with kids and other dogs and doesn't pay any attention to cats. Due to his size, he may be best suited for larger children, only because he could accidentally bump little ones over, but he is very gentle when greeted by smaller children. He gets excited for a walk and will pull a bit at first, but settles down and walks very nicely after just a minute.  Roscoe does not like a crate and has managed to escape from every type he's been in. He is well behaved when left unattended in the house- as long as all the snacks are put away (he helped himself to some snacks from the open pantry at his foster house!) He is potty trained but will need monitoring for his queues that he needs to go out because he's a little nervous and out of sorts in his new surroundings. Roscoe can sit and lay down, will heel on a leash and is learning to catch a treat. He also reluctantly allows his foster family to wipe his muddy paws when he comes in from the yard by laying belly up! He does seem to have a slightly misshaped tongue, which leads to some dribbling when he drinks water, but it doesn't seem to bother him and he lets his foster family wipe his face when he's finished.  If you can give this super lovable big guy the home he deserves, apply for Roscoe! show less
