About Rosie

Rosie has been fortunate in her journey. She spent over three years in a loving home until her mom became too ill to care for her. Luckily, she was taken in by a wonderful foster from AJL, who is dedicated to finding her the perfect companion. Rosie has a charming little spin she does when waiting for a treat, and she adores a good lap and belly scratch. While she’s not overly needy, she enjoys being close to her person. Having been an only dog previously, she’s taken some time to adjust to the canine pals in her foster home, but once she discovered the fun of toys, she started to realize they can be great friends too. Ideally, Rosie would flourish in a one-dog household, but with a bit of patience, she can warm up to doggie buddies. She is house-trained, sweet, and playful with her human companions! Will you be the lucky charm she’s been waiting for?
