Meet Rosealie, a 4-year-old Australian Shepherd weighing 30 pounds, with a soft spirit and a heart full of potential. Rosealie can be a bit shy when meeting new people or experiencing new environments, but with patience and understanding, she begins to open up and show her gentle, loving nature. Rosealie is looking for a calm and patient home that will allow her to move at her own pace as she builds confidence and learns to feel safe. She forms strong bonds once she trusts, and watching her come out of her shell is incredibly rewarding. She gets along well with other dogs and truly benefits from having a canine companion around. A confident dog friend can help guide her and show her that the world isn't so scary, so she would do best in a home with another dog. To ensure the best fit for everyone, a meet-and-greet at the shelter will be required. With time, love, and a supportive environment, Rosealie will continue to grow into a devoted and loyal companion. She's ready for a fresh start with a family who will give her the patience she deserves. ------ Before being rescued, many of our dogs had limited socialization, so they may need some time to adjust to life as a family pet. Older kids are often a great fit for our dogs, and homes with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may take a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of these dogs adapt quite quickly. Being a part of their rehabilitation is a truly rewarding experience. To learn more about mill dogs and start the adoption process, visit our website!
