About Rosie

Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started. Rosie is a 50lb sweetheart who perfectly balances a quiet, independent spirit with a deep love for snuggles. While she can be a bit shy when meeting new faces, she warms up quickly and reveals an incredibly loving nature. She is a professional lounger who thrives in a relaxed environment, enjoying her time outside but truly excelling at the art of relaxing indoors. In the home, Rosie is a polite and easy housemate who is already fully potty and crate trained. She coexists peacefully with cats by mostly giving them their space and gets along wonderfully with other dogs who share her mellow, low-energy approach to life. She even knows her sit command, though she occasionally treats it more like a suggestion than a rule. When it is time for a walk, Rosie shows plenty of enthusiasm and tends to pull on the leash, so she would love a partner to help her practice her focus. Because she has a bit of a creative side, she can become destructive or start digging if she is left alone without enough to do. She will blossom in a home that provides plenty of appropriate chew toys and engagement to keep her busy paws happy. If you are looking for a loyal, quiet companion to brighten your home, Rosie is ready to meet you. Pisces pets like Rosie are known for their affectionate and gentle temperaments—making her an even more delightful companion. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
