About Rose

Rose is a 5-month-old spayed female who brings a mix of Labrador Retriever and Miniature Pinscher traits—she’s the rare blend of playful and steady. This young pup charms everyone in her foster family with her lively but gentle nature. Rose is light on barking, listens to commands, and does not get into scuffles with other animals over food or toys. She is very food-motivated, loves belly rubs, and enjoys play sessions but settles down nicely inside. Rose gets along easily with other dogs, stays relaxed around cats, and is great with kids over five. She already knows how to walk on leash, answers to recall, and is potty trained to go outside. Crate-trained and not a chewer, Rose would do well as a companion to another friendly dog or as your first cheerful pet. Her past as a rescued puppy hasn’t dampened her friendly, trusting outlook—she loves people and adapts quickly to new situations. Rose is looking for a home where she can be your steadfast buddy, whether you live a quiet life or like to stay active. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
