My Story
ROSCOE WAS BORN WITH SEVERE BIRTH DEFECTS, WHICH LEFT HIM UNABLE TO WALK. THEN HIS OWNER ABUSED , NEGLECTED & LEFT HIM IN A YARD TO FEND FOR HIMSELF. GOOD SAMARITANS CONTACTED ASHEVILLE HUMANE SOCIETY & ROSCOE'S NEW LIFE BEGAN. SO MANY WONDERFUL PEOPLE HELPED WITH HIS CARE & DR. DAVID CROUCH, OVER MANY MONTHS, GAVE HIM 4 STRONG, WORKING LEGS. HE REQUIRED ALOT OF CARE, PHYSICAL THERAPY, AND MANY HANDS TO BECOME THE AMAZING BOY HE IS TODAY. ROSCOE IS NOW AN AMBASSADOR FOR RESCUE PETS, EVERYWHERE. HE IS THE POSTER PUP FOR JUST HOW FORGIVING ANIMALS ARE-HE LOVES EVERY PERSON-HE BELIEVES EVERY DOG IS A POTENTIAL PLAYMATE-HE HAS VISITED LOCAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS, WITH BIG SIS BEEMER. HE LOVES TO SEE & BE SEEN AT EVERY EVENT. HE IS THE MOST POPULAR EMPLOYEE AT BMW OF ASHEVILLE, & JUST MAKES EVERYONE HAPPY WITH HIS SMILING FACE. I HAVE SO MANY GREAT PHOTOS OF ROSCOE-BUT THIS ONE, OF THE BIGGEST LAP DOG, SHOWS FAR BETTER THAN ANY WORDS I COULD WRITE HERE, WHY WE NEED TO CONTINUE TO RESCUE. ROSCOE, MOST LIKELY, DUE TO THE SEVERITY OF HIS ISSUES, WOULD HAVE BEEN PUT DOWN, IN MOST SHELTERS-INSTEAD WE HAVE THIS WONDERFUL ORGANIZATION, HERE, THAT FELT HIS LIFE WAS WORTH SAVING. NOW, EVERYDAY, I THINK OUR WORLD IS A BETTER PLACE WITH ROSCOE IN IT & I KNOW MY LIFE CERTAINLY IS. THANK YOU ASHEVILE HUMANE SOCIETY.
