About Rosie

Meet Rosie! This sweet, affectionate 52-pound female Lab/Pointer mix is ready for adoption. Rosie, born on August 19, 2019, was rescued from Tennessee and has been living with her current family as they look to find her the right home. While her family loves her dearly, ongoing conflicts with another female dog at home necessitate a change. Rosie is playful but shy when meeting new people; with a bit of patience, she quickly warms up. Once comfortable, she’ll nudge you for more pets, and she greets her family with a big smile. Her energy level is medium. Rosie enjoys walks, hikes, swimming, and fetch, but she also loves to relax on the couch afterward. She is house-trained, can be left alone for up to nine hours, and has good manners indoors. Rosie can bark at passing distractions but isn't a chronic barker. Rosie lives peacefully with a male dog and has enjoyed playtime with other male dogs. However, she should not be placed in a home with female dogs due to her history. Kids are just fine with Rosie; she has interacted well with all ages and seeks quiet spaces if overwhelmed. She has lived with cats and was curious but non-aggressive. Rosie walks well on a leash and is enthusiastic about car rides, although she may feel anxious in busy environments. Loud noises, like storms or fireworks, scare her, so she might need some extra care during those times. With her charming personality and a little patience, Rosie will thrive in a loving home, especially as the only dog or with a compatible male. A fenced yard would be nice but isn’t a must. Rosie is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. Ready to give Rosie the loving home she deserves? Start your journey together! Apply now.
