About Rose

Meet Rose, sweet as her namesake and full of love. As part of the Golden Girls litter, she’s ready to find her forever home! Born around August 1, 2026, and currently weighing 9 lbs, she’s a mixed breed, expected to grow into a medium-sized pup. Her mom is a 15 lb Shih Tzu, so you can expect a bit more than your typical Shih Tzu. Rose is a gentle soul who thrives in busy, loving households. She gets along well with cats, dogs, and respectful children. This makes her a perfect fit for families looking for a loyal companion. She’ll need a family that’s ready to give her patience, cuddles, and positive-reinforcement training as she grows. If you’re searching for a furry friend with a big heart, Rose may just be the one! The adoption fee is $550, which includes her spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and necessary medical care to set her up for a healthy future. Remember, while we strive for accuracy, we can’t guarantee breed or size as all our pups come from shelters. They’re 100% RESCUED, and that’s the best breed of all! Please note, we conduct home visits as part of our adoption process, and we’re unable to adopt to families outside the Chicago area. Thank you for your understanding. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
