DOG'S DESCRIPTION: Meet Roscoe — 60 pounds of pure love and tail wags!
This handsome young guy is ready to find a forever family to call his own, and whoever adopts him is going to hit the jackpot. Roscoe is the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. He's always up for an adventure and rides well in the car. He is more than happy to soak up all the love and attention you can give. Belly rubs, cuddles, and quality time are high on his list of favorite things.
Roscoe is housebroken and absolutely adores other dogs. In fact, he would thrive in a home with another active, playful pup to romp around with and keep him company. Now all he needs is a forever home where he can share all that love. Apply today and give this beautiful boy a chance to have the happy life that he deserves!

Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.

Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.

Foster Program: Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.

They thrive on human interaction and are eager to please their owners.

The Pit Bull Terrier is a resilient and loyal breed known for its muscular build and loving nature. Originally bred for bull baiting and later dog fighting, Pit Bulls today are beloved family pets cherished for their gentle temperament and playful personality.
