Hi! I’m Rosie.

I believe in:

Following my person everywhere

Playing fetch until one of us collapses

Tug-of-war championships

Pottying outside like a lady

Being your shadow 24/7

I do not believe in:

Being ignored

Being left in a crate all day

Big bully dogs

You see, I had a rough start. Before coming to rescue, I was attacked multiple times by a larger dog. Because of that, I can be a little nervous when meeting new dogs and I need slow, thoughtful introductions. Once I feel safe, my goofy side shines bright.

Looking For

A confident human who understands that healing takes time.

I currently live with multiple dogs and do well in a pack setting, but I can be a bit pushy and dominant with other dogs. I have a rough-and-rowdy play style and sometimes forget that not everyone wants to wrestle like they’re auditioning for Doggie WWE.

Because of my history and play style, any dog siblings should be introduced slowly and carefully. I’d thrive with a savvy adopter who can help me continue building confidence and good manners.

Crate trained

House trained and will tell you when I need to go out

Great with people

Loves affection

Sweet soul with a giant heart

Gives 110% effort in every game of f
