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.
