ROSCOE
Cattle Dog
🇺🇸
Bellingham, Washington
April 12th
male, medium, adult
DESCRIPTION
Roscoe is a handsome 11-month-old pup is the definition of a "good boy" with all the fun, playful energy you'd expect from a young dog-plus a great foundation already in place! He's eager to learn, wants to please, and is already picking up on his manners.
He's currently working on skills like "off" (no jumping!) and is doing really well with "sit"-especially when food is involved . He walks nicely on leash, has solid recall for his age, and is already showing excellent house manners. In fact, he appears to be fully housebroken-his kennel is always clean, and he reliably goes potty when taken out. That's pretty impressive for a pup his age!
This boy enjoys time outdoors and has done great roaming in a fenced area. He's been exposed to farm life and has been around horses and goats-he doesn't chase, though he may bark a bit when they move quickly (understandable!). He's also met a small dog and did very well-gentle, respectful, and not overwhelming.
Like any puppy, he'll need continued guidance, especially with typical behaviors like mouthiness and jumping when excited. The good news? He's responsive, smart, and already learning that calm behavior gets him the attention and love he's looking for.
He LOVES to play fetch and would thrive in an active home that can keep him mentally and physically engaged. With consistency and continued training, he's going to grow into an incredible companion.
If you're looking for a fun-loving, trainable, and affectionate young dog who's already off to a great start-this boy might be your perfect match!
