Roscoe's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.<br/>Roscoe is officially ready for adoption! This handsome little guy is searching for a patient, loving home after his owner made the difficult decision to surrender him. After entering the shelter, it quickly became clear that Roscoe was struggling in that environment. The shelter recognized that he needed a quieter, more supportive setting and reached out to rescue for help. Once Roscoe settled into foster care, his true personality began to shine. Today, he is a feisty, spunky, and thoroughly spoiled lap dog who loves nothing more than being close to his people. He's become his foster mom's little shadow, happily following her around the house to make sure everything is running smoothly.<br/><br/>While Roscoe can be shy and cautious when meeting new people, he gains confidence a little more each day. Once you've earned his trust, he's incredibly devoted and affectionate. Whether he's curled up in your lap or snuggled beside you on the couch, Roscoe simply wants to be near his favorite person. He does appreciate having his boundaries respected and is very good at communicating when he's had enough attention. Because of this, Roscoe would do best in an adult-only home. His ideal adopter is a single person who can shower him with love and attention, though he would also do well with a patient and understanding couple.<br/><br/>Most days, you'll find Roscoe cozied up on a soft pillow or perched at a window keeping watch over the neighborhood and protecting his humans from suspicious visitors, especially the mailman! His confidence has grown tremendously thanks to the companionship of his foster home's resident dogs. Roscoe would thrive in a home with another small or medium-sized dog to help guide him and build his confidence. Once comfortable, he's playful, energetic, and loves tug-of-war, zoomies, and toy time. Stuffed toys are his favorite, and he'll happily collect all his treasures to keep them safe from the other dogs.<br/><br/>Roscoe is continuing to work on his leash skills and is becoming more comfortable wearing a collar. By following the lead of his canine foster siblings, he's learned that walks can be a lot of fun! Because new environments can still be overwhelming for him, adopters will be required to use a martingale collar (You can purchase one from Pixie Mamas for $10), and a securely fenced yard is a must. Invisible fencing is not suitable for Roscoe.<br/><br/>He is doing very well with house training and has only had a few accidents since entering foster care. A consistent routine helps him succeed. Roscoe is also crate trained and rests comfortably in his pen when left alone. He has even been trusted out of his pen while his foster parents are away and has done wonderfully. At bedtime, Roscoe settles in easily and sleeps through the night without any issues.<br/><br/>Roscoe may need a little time to adjust, but with patience, understanding, and love, you'll discover an incredibly loyal companion who will reward you with endless affection. If you're looking for a devoted best friend to share your days with, Roscoe just might be your perfect match. ❤ï ̧<br/><br/>Roscoe is neutered, up to date with vaccines, microchipped, flea/worm treated and tested neg. for heartworm. His adoption fee is $475

Pixie Mamas Rescue's Adoption Policy
Pixie Mamas Rescue does not have a shelter or kennel facility. All dogs live in foster homes - they are part of our families! We have no time limit on how long the dogs stay in foster care - as long as it takes to find a home that suits them. Our foster homes work with the animal on basic manners, crate- and house-training, and correcting any behavioral issues that an animal may have. We require an adoption application, a veterinary reference (if applicable), and a home visit. Unfortunately, we are unable to adopt out of state (including Canada) or over 1.5 hours away from Buffalo, NY. Any travel IN our adoption area is at the discretion of the foster home. We do not ship dogs. You must be willing to come to the Buffalo NY area to complete the adoption after the home visit. The decision to place a dog in a home rests with the Foster home and Pixie Mamas Board. We only have the best interests of the animal at heart and we know best that animal's needs and temperament. Pixie Mamas Rescue reserves the right to approve or deny your application without explanation. Applications are kept on file for 1 year. You do not need to reapply within that year unless your information has changed. Please read the list below of general requirements and information for all adopting families. If you do not meet one of the requirements, please do not submit an Adoption Application. Applicants must be 25 or older Applications must be filled out completely. References are a must! Animals will not be adopted to any college students. Animals may not be adopted as a "gift" for someone unless all family members are aware of the adoption and meet the animal before the adoption takes place Dogs must not be left crated for more than 8 hours If you have a current pet, they must be up to date on vaccinations and spayed/neutered. This includes cats. Dogs must have annual vet exams.. If renting, verbal approval from the landlord is required to keep the dog on the premises All applicants must be willing to receive a home inspection and meet and greet prior to adoption (all family members and their pets must be present) If you have a current pet, your pet must meet the new pet before the adoption is finalized to make sure they will be compatible to live together We do not adopt small dogs to homes with an electric fence. In addition, an electric fence is not acceptable for dogs that require a fenced in yard. Adoption Fees are Non Negotiable and Non Refundable If you adopt from Pixie Mamas Rescue and you cannot keep the pet for any reason, you must return the animal to Pixie Mamas Rescue. There is no guarantee that because you apply for the dog that you are going to adopt the dog. We seriously consider all applications but if we should suggest another dog for your home, it is because we truly know these dogs and possibly there is another dog that is a better fit. We strive for as best of a match as possible. Proper placement takes into consideration many things, including size, male/female, activity level, children and ages of the children, fencing or lack of, amount of time dog will spend home alone, and many other considerations. We cannot respond to everyone personally. Please follow us on Facebook for updates. We cannot "hold" a dog for you. If you are considering adopting a dog but are going on vacation in the near future, please WAIT until you return to adopt. We do not Foster to Adopt or have trial adoptions We require a non-refundable adoption donation. Our fees start at $350 for adult dogs. "Highly Adoptables" (puppies/purebreds ,etc.) may be more. We sometimes reduce the fee for senior and special-needs dogs for the right adopters and some of our dogs receive sponsorships to help them get adopted. All the animals are spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, wormed, flea-treated, and microchipped.
