About Rosemary Is A Pint

Rosemary is a bundle of personality in a compact, medium-sized frame. She’s a clever, sweet girl with a big heart, wagging her way into every room—despite not having much of a tail. Weighing about 39 lbs, she packs a lot of love without taking up too much space. Rosemary thrives on human connection, leaning in close for head pets and soaking up attention from adults and children alike. She formed a quick bond with a 7-year-old friend, showing her gentle and nurturing side. With other dogs, Rosemary prefers calm over chaos. She’s polite during introductions and enjoys hanging back rather than joining in rough play, making her a great fit for homes with mellow dogs or as your only canine companion. Rosemary is happiest with respectful dog friends but truly only needs her people to feel fulfilled. She’s affectionate and loyal, happy in an apartment with walks or a yard to sniff in, but she needs a home without cats. Her curiosity for felines is a bit too strong. Equally cuddly and independent, Rosemary is house trained, spayed, and up-to-date on vaccinations. Born on September 22, Rosemary is a Virgo—she’s thoughtful, observant, and loves a quiet, orderly home. She’s ready to bring plenty of love and a touch of spunk wherever she lands.
