About Rossi

Rossi may not be as fast as his namesake these days but he's still an active boy for his 10 years. He is a friendly boy who gets overwhelmed easily, but he has settled well into his foster home and greets his carer excitedly each time she comes home. He loves to be brushed and spoken to gently and will sleep contentedly in his own bed. That seems to be his safe space, and he should be left to himself if he’s in there. Rossi enjoys being outside and is very interactive when off his lead and will often seek a nice scratch from his handler, and he prefers quiet spaces and parks as he doesn’t like busy roads. He lived with other dogs previously and when in kennels he seemed to feed off their stress and become reactive himself, but in his foster home he has made a friend, though it’s taken a while. He generally ignores other dogs but can be reactive if they’re nearby and he is uncomfortable. We would love to see him go home to a family that will give him time to trust them and help him continue to build his confidence at his pace. Rossi is a senior gentleman and his behaviours and habits can seem complex at times but he’s just a worried dog who needs someone to guide him.
