Rossco's Description.
Rossco turned up in someone’s backyard near Turf Street, initially he was shooed away but he kept coming back. The vets were called, the Lost and Found was called and he was announced on the radio but no-one came to claim him. The pound was notified and after 7-10 days he was bought to HappyPaws Haven to be re-homed. Rossco is a lovely Lab Kelpie cross with a wonderfully personality, gets on with everyone including dogs and other animals. He is a quicker learner, very willing to please. He is now de-sexed, immunised, micro-chipped and training at Grafton Dog Obedience Club.
Rossco is very much people dog so needs to be in a family or some who works from home or can take them with them. He is not the type of dog who should be left for hours on end without anyone to be with either dog or human. He is fine if he has another dog to play with. He is fine with other dogs as he lives with 6 other young dogs currently. He is reasonably well behaved for a teenager, but can have a mind of his own, he is obedient, protective of his owner but full of lots of energy. He gets over excited if he sees another dog and he wants to play. He needs a firm hand otherwise like all teenagers he will stretch the boundaries if he can! He needs to be walked at least once a day and to get regular exercise. He loves playing ball so needs a playmate. He is better with older kids as he might knock over a young child in his exuberance. He loves people and being around them. He is looking for a wonderful home where his owner would love him forever, take him to training, exercise every day and have someone or another dog like him to play with and a fully fenced back yard. he just wants to please and he likes travelling in a car. He needs someone who will spend time with him.
