About Rosie

There's something special about puppy energy that makes every moment memorable. Rosie, at just 4 months old, is a delightful mixture of Australian Cattle Dog and maybe some black Lab, ready to fill your life with silly antics and warmth. Weighing in at around 18 lbs now, she'll likely grow to about 45 lbs, bringing many playful days ahead. Rescued just in time from a high-kill shelter, Rosie has a fantastic temperament and a spirit that radiates joy. With her beautiful black and white coat and short hair, she captures the essence of puppy sweetness with those expressive dark eyes that seem to tell tales beyond her age. Rosie's temperament is appropriate for her age – she loves to play, explore, and cuddle up after active days. Ideally, she'd thrive in a home with energetic people, like a retired couple or someone who works from home, ready to train and enjoy all the goofy things a smart pup brings. While she does well with children, older kids who can engage in training would be a great match, ensuring a wonderful bond. This charming pup enjoys the company of both humans and other dogs. She’s always up for an adventure, be it a walk, a park outing, or just lounging on the couch beside her favorite people at the end of a fun day. She's up-to-date on vetting and vaccinations and has all her puppy vigor intact. Rosie is looking for her forever home, and her sweet nature will undoubtedly melt your heart.
