About Rosie

If you're after a loving, loyal, and affectionate companion, Rosie is ready to step up. Around 2 years old and with a solid, athletic build, she’s spayed, microchipped, and current on all vaccinations. Rosie’s history isn’t pretty—she was abandoned with her three-week-old puppies and left to get by on her own. Even so, she never stopped loving. She looked after her pups with a devoted heart and watched as each one found a safe place to land. Now, she’s waiting for her turn to be the one who settles in and gets loved right back. Rosie strikes a rare balance of sweetness and brains. She knows her basics—sit, shake, down—and she’s easy to walk, keeping pace right beside you. House and crate trained, she’s a solid travel companion in the car too. Rosie thrives on time with people and is gentle with kids, always seeking out attention or a lap to lean into. She’s loyal to her core: expect her to stick close and offer plenty of affection, whether it’s curling up for a nap or tagging along on your next outing. Click apply to start the adoption process.
