Meet Rosie!
Rosie is a beautiful 5-year-old German Shepherd mix who came to us as a stray. When she first arrived, she was heartbroken and unsure, choosing to curl up quietly in the back of her kennel. But with time, patience, and gentle encouragement, her personality has begun to bloom.
Once she is comfortable, Rosie's favorite place-aside from her cozy nap spot-is right by her kennel door. She loves greeting volunteers and staff with soft eyes and a hopeful tail wag. If you walk by however, she's happy to let you know that you forgot to say hi! This girl has a tender spirit and a calm, low-key nature that makes her easy to love.
Although Rosie is incredibly sweet and she appreciates all the attention she can get, she is still cautious when meeting new people and other animals. She will need a few meets to warm up to new people, but once she is comfortable, she is ready to become someone's best friend. Given her cautious demeanor with new people, Rosie would do best in a home with older children or a home without kids as it can be quite stressful for her. As with all of our adoptables, a meet with all family members, furry and non-furry will be needed to ensure it's a great match. If there is a feline family member, we are happy to gauge her reactions to cats once you have met Rosie and have decided it's meant to be.
If you're looking for a gentle companion with a kind heart and a penchant for snuggles, Rosie may be your perfect match. She's ready for someone special to show her that the world is safe-and that she deserves all the love it has to offer.
Rosie is on-site in our Adoption Center, come on in and ask to meet her in one of our playrooms and let her soft charm win you over!
Information may change over time as we get to know Rosie better.
