Meet Rosie, the quintessential sweetheart who will melt your heart! ❤️ This lovely lady is as warm and welcoming as a cozy blanket on a chilly evening. After dedicating her time and love to raising her 11 adorable pups, Rosie is now ready to find that special someone who will cherish her forever. At just 1.5 to 2 years old, and weighing in at a sassy 50 pounds, this red coonhound mix is bursting with youthful energy and charm. Rosie is the definition of playful! Picture this: she playfully tosses her treats in the air like they’re the hottest toys at the park, and enjoys a good game of tug and fetch. 🎾💖 Just like a goofy puppy, she loves her playtime and needs those daily walks to keep her tail wagging and her spirit bright. But wait—once the playtime is done, this adorable girl is ready to cuddle up and snooze next to you on the couch, or better yet, try to nestle right into your lap. Talk about the ultimate cuddle buddy! 😴🐾 She might love to watch the squirrels scampering outside, but don't worry—she's not a noisy gal. Rosie only barks occasionally, usually when a deer strolls by. 🌳 Her good manners don’t stop there; she’s 100% house and crate trained, and walks like a pro on a leash! Just a heads up, though—her instincts may say "chase!" when she spots a squirrel, so a home without cats is a must. 🐱🚫 Rosie loves her four-legged friends, especially her 13-year-old beagle/basset foster sister. A fenced yard would be her fairy-tale ending, providing plenty of space to romp and play! 💕 Adoption with Rosie is accompanied by the most incredible package: for just $350, you’ll receive her spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations, heartworm treatment, and any additional medical care she may need to be the healthiest new member of your family! **And let’s be honest—rescue dogs are the BEST breed!** 🐶✨ Important note: As a foster-home-based rescue, home visits are part of the adoption process. Sadly, Rosie can only be placed with families within Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Your understanding means the world to us! 💖 So, if you feel that spark with Rosie and can provide her the loving home she deserves, *apply through the Buddy App* today! Let the journey to her forever begin!
