Introducing Rothko!

We will have a new boy arriving soon and we can't wait to meet him! He's kind of a mystery still but we know that he's done well with other dogs in his temporary foster home and that he doesn't get upset when dogs are snarky around him. (Chima, you're in luck!)


Rothko is about 2-3 years old and weighs about 14 pounds. He has calico markings and a docked tail. Once he's up here we should be able to narrow his age range and confirm the weight.


We do know he's a handsome little dude though, as you can see in the two shelter photos we have.

Rothko was named for the American Abstract Expressionist painter, Marc Rothko. Rothko started his career in a more surrealistic style and a focus on mythical creatures. His work became more abstract and minimalistic until his signature "multiform" color block style evolved in the late 1940's through his death in 1970.
