Notes from Doberman Rescue Minnesota

Meet Roscoe: The "Blue Beauty" Looking for a Bestie!

Are you looking for a personal shadow? A professional snuggler? A dog who is as smart as he is handsome? Meet Rosco, a 3-year-old Blue European Doberman who is ready to find his "furever" team!

Roscoe isn't just a dog; he’s a graduate! He’s spent the months in "Scholar Mode" with a professional trainer and has absolutely blossomed. He’s got the brains, the beauty, and a heart of pure gold.

The Roscoe Resume:

Velcro Dog Level: Expert. He wants to be wherever you are. Couch time? He’s there. Kitchen duty? He’s supervising.

Social Butterfly: He loves people of all ages and is a total rockstar at adoption events.

The "Peacekeeper": Roscoe is great with cats, ducks, and respectful dogs. He prefers a "chill vibe"—no hyper puppy energy for this refined gentleman, please!

The Athlete: He’s treadmill trained, walks well on a head halter, E collar and muzzle trained and is currently mastering his off-leash skills.

Roscoe’s Favorite Things:

The Ball: It is his prized possession. He’ll play fetch for a bit, but his real specialty is "rolling around in the grass with the ball."

Chewing: Give him a chewable bone over a stuffed toy any day.

Car Rides: Shotgun! He’s the ultimate co-pilot.

Snuggling: Did we mention he’s a giant lap dog?

The Logistics:

Neutered & UTD on vaccines.

Crate trained & Potty trained.

Knows all basic commands (and some advanced ones!).

Bonus: He comes with a free training session to help you and Rosco start off on the right paw!

"Roscoe has been such a joy to have. He’s a fun, smart boy who just wants to be loved."

Ready to make Roscoe a part of your family? Don't wait—this blue-coated sweetheart is ready to go home! His best friends are kitties, this just tells you how tender he really is. Roscoe is requiring someone who has Doberman experience, comfortable with training and needing to continue his progress and work with him on his stimuli reactivity while on walks and building his confidence and bond with his handler.
