Meet Roscoe....Roscoe (age 11) and 3 females were recently rescued from a backyard breeder in Arkansas where they lived together in an 8 x 8 pen in horrific conditions. Roscoe and the girls were badly treated and terribly neglected.
The 3 females were younger and more adoptable so they are being fostered and placed for adoption thru Ozark Mountain Basset Rescue.
Roscoe needed a place to enjoy the last of his senior years so he came to us at BassetsRus.
We have a special place in our hearts for those who have endured many years of irresponsible breeding - with little personal attention. We hope we can make up for lost time with Roscoe and he can thoroughly enjoy his "retirement" with us.
He does not want to make eye contact which is common in a dog so neglected and beaten down.
He has healed scars on the top of his head and the top of his ear. His ears are pretty ripped up on the ends.
After a few hours with us last nite he was very responsive and all about wagging that happy basset tail.
Stay tuned for more updates on Roscoe.
Have a great weekend.

O, Roscoe! Your picture made me cry. Your poor headie. I hope you get all the attention you missed all those years you spent with those nasty people. Eventually I hope you are able to let people give you kisses right on top of your head. God bless you, Roscoe, you handsome old hound...and God bless the folks who are taking such good care of you. Love you, old boy.
