About Rosebud

Rosebud came to the shelter as a stray, so her background is a bit of a mystery. She's around 1 year old and currently weighs 47 lbs. As a German Shepherd mix, she has a short coat that shines in shades of black and yellow/tan. She's up to date on her DA2PP and bordetella vaccinations, but she is not yet spayed; however, her adoption fee includes a $75 voucher for her spay surgery if it hasn't been completed prior to adoption. At first, Rosebud can be shy when meeting new people, but with a little time and encouragement, her sweet nature shines through. She enjoys playtime, loves treats, and relishes walks. Rosebud has youthful energy, so an active family ready to provide her with physical and mental exercise would be ideal. Currently, she gets along well with other dogs at the shelter, but her interactions with kids and cats are not yet known. Before adopting, it's recommended to bring the whole family to ensure they all get along during a meet and greet. There's no way to assess her housetraining in a shelter setting, so it's best to assume she's not yet housebroken. Start your journey together with Rosebud today!
