What are you waiting for? Apply today! Stevie is a wonderful 3-year-old spayed female Rottweiler mix currently located on Long Island, NY (with transport available to local areas). Weighing about 70 lbs, Stevie is ready for a new chapter in a home where she can be the only pet. After 2.5 years with her current family, she has become protective toward the resident dog, so she'll thrive best as the sole four-legged companion in her household, where she won't need to share her space or your affection.
