In the shelter’s words
Mama Rubirosa is ready for a little mothering of her own. 1 Year Old, 39lb - This sweet girl has a playful spirit and one favorite place to be: wherever you are. She’ll follow you around the house, join you for a walk, then settle in close for cuddles. Rubirosa loves a good chew, has plenty of energy, and would thrive with someone who enjoys an active dog and can give her consistent attention, structure, and training. She’s house trained and working on leash manners, getting comfortable in her crate, and keeping her excitement from turning into nibbling. She may enjoy a similarly playful dog companion with a thoughtful introduction; her enthusiasm was a little much for her foster’s dog, who preferred more space. A home with older children or adults would be the best fit as she learns! If you’re looking for an affectionate little shadow with a big appetite for life and snacks, Rubirosa would love to meet you.
