You caught us! Yes, our walk contained five fluffy tails, so our secret is out. We take great pride in introducing Roscoe to you.
After losing our two senior members a mere twelve days apart, we had a long debate here at Chez Herd about what to do next. If we added, we needed someone who could fit in easily with the current pack dynamics, including a fussy Little Prince.
We went back to our friends at Southern Siberian Rescue, the same place that guided Landon to us. Roscoe has been with them for several months after being surrendered to an animal shelter. We know virtually nothing about his past life and suspect that he got into the system simply for being an exuberant teenager. He’s probably now roughly 3 years old, beyond that crazy teenage stage but still young and energetic.
He has met everyone and is slowly earning privileges around the house while going on lots of walks to burn energy. The most interesting thing to watch has been a budding friendship from an unlikely pair.

Wings of Doom
December 12, 2024
A simple nightly routine with my dogs led me to face the wings of doom, a hideous creature that lurks in the shadows of my yard.
We missed this! Congratulations on the new pup!
Charlee: “Welcome to the Herd, Roscoe!”
Chaplin: “You couldn’t ask for a nicer bunch of new friends!”
Great to see Roscoe making friends in the NC mtns. Love those Boomerang Tags, mine all wear them on the
ir collars too!
Welcome Roscoe! You are home.
Welcome Roscoe! What beautiful eyes you have!
Mom ‘n Ebby say: WELCOME Roscoe! We wondered how long it would take to find you!
What a handsome boy, love those brown eyes!

I and my tribe would like to extend our joy to the hu-mans for the love of their new member Roscoe. I would like to remind him that is is covered by the current doguments in place with the Sibe Tribe and will be able to avail himself of full representation should the need arise.

Oh my gosh, Zoe! I’m enthralled with your tribe. Is there any room for you in the house? ????????
ROSCOE!!!! We are so happy you’ve found your forever home — and such a wonderful one at that! You have such exciting adventures ahead of you! Congrats all around!
Yours sincerely,

Congrats on finding your everlasting home with the herd!
Word, not work.
I am looking for the right work. He looks regal. Like when you look at a male lion. Very studly. I am glad you brought him home. I look forward to his happiness returning. He looks sad. But he has the perfect home to bring light to his life. Thank you.
After reading his bio on Southern Siberian, it looks like he’ll be a great fit. And he’s a New Leash on Life graduate. Great program! It’ll be interesting to see how he and Typhoon’s relationship evolve.
Really wasn’t sure you would add more – 4 is a handful when all are young! (Yes Ms. Cheoah, you are Forever Young). This is great that Rosco and Ty have paired up. So cool! Roscoe seems pretty regal. Pics deceiving? 🙂
