About Rosie

Meet Rosie, your future shadow and professional gift-giver! This 4-year-old, medium-sized Hound mix weighs around 35-40 lbs and calls Houston, TX home, but she's ready to travel to find her forever family. Rosie strikes the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation. She loves exploring the neighborhood and going on ''sniff-aris,'' but she also enjoys kicking back and lounging around. Whether you need a hiking partner or a snuggle buddy for quiet evenings, Rosie is the dog for you. Though it may take her some time to warm up to new people, the reward is worth the wait. Once she trusts you, her affection shines through in delightful ways, like bringing you her food bowl or a shoe as a welcoming gift. She's also quite the conversationalist, especially when it’s time for her walks. Rosie is great around dogs and adores her current foster sibling. However, she would thrive in a home without young children since she needs some time to adjust to new friends. Transport is available to out-of-state adopters, included in the $600 adoption fee. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion who just needs a gentle touch, Rosie may be the one. Ready to welcome Rosie home? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
