He is a 6 month old rescue from the Humane Society. My sister's girlfriend texted me that there was a Pug rescue she thinks would be perfect for me. My sister had a Tibetan that was at her daycare on a daily basis, so she knew we really cared for our pets.

I wasn't looking for another dog as my Beagle Corgi is happy being The One and only. She is very healthy, but at 13, is a little grumpy around the little whippersnapper. Hopefully, she will warm up to her little brother.

Back to how I got him. I texted my sister's gf back and said I was interested. She has a couple employees that are also my tenants. One has a Maltese rescue. She said a lady would give me a call about him. The lady turned out to be our former Governor's SIL, who is a famous pianist and acted with Elvis! She calls me a fills me in and we went from there. That was Tuesday afternoon and evening, and I picked him up yesterday.

Long story short. I am guessing the Humane Society has a network of dog lovers/specialists they call when a special dog comes in. That is how I got Roscoe. They probably want them to go to a good home, instead of someone adopting and then flipping them for profit! I've seen some pets online at the Humane Society that later ended up for sale on CL for a "rehoming fee".
