About Roz

Roz is a 7-year-old English Setter thriving in her North Texas foster home. Rescued from a difficult situation in Oklahoma, she's learning the joys of home living. Roz is a gentle and affectionate soul who can be a bit shy at first, but she's treat-motivated and quickly adapts to her surroundings. She’s quiet and polite, never barking at the doorbell or visitors, and she’s completely non-destructive. House-trained and loving, Roz enjoys a structured routine and responds well to her name and hand claps. She’s content in her crate for several hours during the day and sleeps well through the night. While she has some anxiety about loud noises, she's great around people, including kids of various ages. Active and curious, Roz loves to explore outside, often enjoying 4 to 6 hours of self-exercise daily. She has a medium prey drive and loves engaging in playful games with neighbor dogs. Though she will need a home with a fenced yard for her adventures, she doesn't require daily walks. Roz must find a home where she can be loved, either as an only dog or with a dog that can appreciate her personality. Although her heart murmur is noted, it doesn't hinder her energy and activity levels. Roz deserves a family that will cherish her and provide a warm forever home.
