About Rosie

Rosie is a sweet, quiet 10-year-old girl seeking a peaceful, loving home. She enjoys her solitude and can often be found taking long naps in her crate. Short walks are best for her, allowing plenty of time to lay in the grass and soak in the sounds and smells of nature. Rosie responds well to basic commands and knows when it's time to go outside or come back in. Though she might be a bit nervous at first, she warms up to new people quickly. Given her age, she would thrive in a home with few or no stairs. This gentle girl gets along well with both other dogs and children, making her an excellent addition to a loving family. While she hasn't had any experience with cats, her friendly nature suggests she'd adapt well with proper introductions. Click apply to start the adoption process.
