Meet Roscoe Dolittle, a 4-month-old Lab / Husky mix, weighing approx. 25 pounds (as of 4/26/26). The DOLITTLES were found as strays with their mom, Destiny Momma Dolittle (pictured and adoptable), in Tennessee. Despite their rough beginnings, these pups are ready to solve problems using their special powers: talking to animals! And they accept all health insurance!

When he's not diagnosing issues in the animal kingdom, Roscoe loves to play. He is a very happy pup who has the energy and adventurous spirit to join any family scenario, even rescuing a tiger from the circus! Roscoe is very outgoing and doesn’t know a stranger. He's the perfect age to learn how to be a perfect gentleman and he can't wait to show you what he can do!

Like any family of young dog doctors, the Dolittles are energetic, playful and loads of fun! They don't have experience with kids or cats yet, but they're more than welcome to set an appointment and get a sticker as a reward! These pups get along with other dogs and will even give strangers their business cards. They'll need love and patience with basic puppy training (leashes, potty, commands, crates, etc), but they'll bring so much joy to your home, you won't even mind! Do a little or do a lot, just adopt them today!

All dogs are up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. All dogs require professional training to become the best family member they can be.

Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. From time to time we receive new information/photos of a dog and we do recreate their listing, which means their old listing link will no longer be valid.

Please note, GDRNE does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated that we have run DNA. All breeds listed are educated estimates. Note that if the dog is listed as an "Out of town pet" there are NOT additional transport fees - it is included in our adoption fee Our dogs are rescued from various situations. It is most likely that both their parents were strays and even if not, mixes of some sort and that their grandparents were mixes as well. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them a breed all their own - a True and adorable American MUTT. If you are interested in this dog, you must submit an application. Great Dog is not a shelter so there is no building you can visit. Our dogs live in private foster homes until adopted.
