Rosco, the Dog of the Day
Name: Rosco
Age: Two and a half years old
Gender: Male Breed: Miniature Dachshund
Home: USA
 
   This is Rosco. Rosco is a farm dog! In this picture he is on the top of a 12-foot-high shavings pile. Rosco likes to go everywhere with his people. He loves to play ball and especially likes it when the UPS man leaves boxes in his yard. He thinks these boxes are for him! Rosco always is happy to open the boxes before his people get home and to take whatever it is in there and leave it in the yard so they can see it when they get home.

    Rosco is also very special because he has Addison's Disease. Addison's Disease is an adrenal insufficiency and since Rosco does not create adrenalin on his own, he has to have a shot every 28 days and a pill daily to help him feel better. Rosco and his brother (a large Labrador) are great watchdogs too!
