About Rosie

Radiant Rosie is a sweet but slightly timid Spaniel/Chihuahua mix looking for the right home to help her settle in. Four years old, about 12 pounds, and wrapped in soft, medium-length golden-red fur, she has a gentle temperament and does well with other dogs. Rosie came into rescue already pregnant and gave birth in her foster home. She’s house-trained to use a doggie door and does well with routines, but will appreciate a bit of patience and positive reinforcement as she continues to master leash walking and house manners. Her mild nature and intelligence make her adaptable once she feels secure. Currently micro-chipped, vaccinated, and scheduled to be spayed soon, Rosie stands out as a quiet, loving presence ready to move on from her past. If you’re looking for a small, affectionate companion who just needs a steady hand and a soft place to land, Rosie could be the perfect fit. Give them the home they have been waiting for.
