#A5747248 Say hello to Rita , our 5-year-old Rottweiler mix and the ultimate chonky love muffin, with perfectly squishy rolls that just beg for pets. She’s like a little teddy bear wrapped in a luxurious black-and-brown coat, impossible not to adore. Rita came in as a stray with a leg injury, which sadly required amputation, but this resilient girl is adjusting beautifully to life as a tripod. With a little extra TLC and patience, she’ll be bouncing back to her best self and running around on three legs in no time! She may be a bit shy at the shelter, peeking up with big, soulful puppy-dog eyes, but give her time to decompress and her true, loving personality will shine through. Rita is ready for a patient, caring home where she can flourish and show just how amazing she really is! Will that be with you? -5 year old black and brown Rottweiler mix -65 pound female -up to date on all shots and preventatives, so ready to go home with you today!
