I picked Roscoe up this morning and so far it's going great! He is such a pathetic little guy and just starved for attention. The vet says he's 2-4 yrs old but he looks like an old man, and he was laying in his bed earlier suckling on one of his toys like he was a baby. I don't know how anyone could have been so cruel to him. I'm glad that part of his life is over and he's made it home!

Yay Roscoe, yay Tanner, and yay Elizabeth!! Welcome home!! He will be so happy, and most of all, so very loved from now on, it is what he deserves, as does all these unfortunate "throw -away" pups and kitties. He will now have the most loving home ever, with the most loving dog-mom ever, from here on out. Now, just share as many pics as possible!!
Congrats Elizabeth!!
Much Love,
Bonnie, Angel Polly, and new crew
More pictures!!!

And the best part is that he will live a happy live from now on. Congrats on the new addition to the family. Roscoe is precious.

Our story: Broke rear leg in June 2013 - non-conclusive results for cancer so leg was plated and pinned. Enlarged spleen in September 2013 and had it removed and was diagnosed with Hemangiosarcoma and started chemotherapy. Became a Tripawd January 8th, 2014 and definitive Hemangiosarcoma diagnosis. Three major surgeries in 7 months and Shelby took them all like a champ only to lose her battle to cancer in her brain. We had 8 amazing extra months together and no regrets. #shelbystrong #loveofmylife
WELCOME HOME ROSCOE!!! W E L C O M E. H O M E!!!!! HIP...HIP...HOORAAAAY...ROSCOE IS HOME!!!!
And he and Tanner look like it's the reunion of two "so u l friends" from a previous lifetime!!! A familiarity...a recognition from another time and place.
Hmmm...perhaps all three, Jake, Tanner and Roscoe, spent time together in "soul land"!
. Sleeping in the same bed alread?? YAAAAAAAAAY!
This is soooo exciting! Roscoe is so darn cute! Yeah, he hit the puppy lottery, that's for sure! Two tripawds...oh my goodness!!! You are a special, special soul!!
CANNOT WAIT FOR MORE PICS AND VIDEOS! AND CANNOT WAIT FOR THE EAST COAST TRIPAWD LAWTY TO MEET ROSCOE...and to watch Tanner "float like a butterfly and sting like a bee" as he goes in for the "cheek nip and the run"!
Roscoe really looks like he KNOWS he's HOME!! Getting all teary eyed over here!!
So much love to all!
