Rosemary spent five years surviving on the streets of Hutto, TX, raising litter after litter before a network of dedicated animal advocates finally brought her to safety. She’s now about 6 to 7 years old, and after coming in as a feral, Rosemary has tackled heartworm treatment and made steady progress toward indoor life. She has come a long way—now greeting familiar faces with gentle affection. Still, sudden movements and loud noises can set her on edge, and she’ll need a patient, experienced adopter who understands that she might always need extra support learning how to settle in and feel safe inside a home. Rosemary does well with both dogs and cats, but requires a stable, quiet environment and people willing to give her the time she needs to feel secure. She doesn’t seek out attention from strangers and may never be the outgoing dog that greets everyone at the door, but for those she trusts, she is truly loving. Rosemary’s journey is ongoing and will take a special family who wants to be part of it. Click apply to start the adoption process.
