Meet Rosie (aka Ro Ro)! ❤️
7 years old | 55 lbs | Lab/Pointer mix | Female
If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion with a little personality and a whole lot of love to give, Rosie might just be your girl!
Rosie is a beautiful, gentle-natured girl who loves her people and has a fun, silly side. Her absolute favorite thing in the world? BALLS! She could play fetch for hours and will happily drop that ball at your feet long after you think playtime is over. She also enjoys long walks, hikes, swimming, car rides, toys, and exploring the yard. An active family who enjoys getting outside would be right up her alley.
But Rosie isn’t all go, go, go! Once she’s had her fun, she’s perfectly happy to curl up on the couch beside you or find a cozy spot to relax. She loves affection and isn’t shy about asking for pets. If you’re not giving her enough attention, she’ll gently paw at your hand to remind you!
Rosie is a smart girl who knows some basic commands and would enjoy learning new things, puzzle toys, and activities that keep her mind busy. She’s also wonderfully quirky. She likes her cozy spots, isn’t a fan of the dark, and when thunderstorms roll in, you might find her seeking refuge in the bathroom. A little nightlight and some extra reassurance go a long way!
A few things to know about Rosie:
Rosie can be shy and reserved when meeting new people. She may bark initially when visitors arrive, but with a little patience, she’ll warm up, come over to investigate, and eventually seek out attention. She just needs time to feel comfortable and build trust. Once you’re her person, you’ll see what a loving companion she can be.
Rosie has lived with other dogs but is selective about her canine friends. She has done well with a male dog in her home, and a compatible male may be a possibility with thoughtful introductions. However, she has had serious conflicts with female dogs, including incidents resulting in injury. For this reason, a home where she is the only dog would be our first choice. Any potential placement with another dog would need careful evaluation and management.
She has also lived with cats temporarily and did well with them, showing curiosity rather than aggression. However, she does have a prey drive toward smaller animals, so a home without small pets would be safest.
The good news? Rosie absolutely loves children and has been wonderful with kids of all ages!
Rosie would love a home with a fenced yard where she can chase her favorite ball, enjoy some outdoor adventures, and then come inside to snuggle with her people. She can be left home alone while her family is at work and doesn’t need someone home around the clock.
What Rosie needs most is someone willing to give her a little time, understanding, and patience.
She isn’t going to be everyone’s dog right away, and that’s okay. She has her own personality, her own quirks, and her own way of getting comfortable. But underneath that initial shyness is an incredibly sweet, gentle girl who has so much love to give.
Give Rosie the chance to blossom, and you might just find your very best friend.
Her perfect day? A walk, a game of fetch (or ten!), a car ride, and snuggling on the couch with her favorite person. What more could a girl ask for? ❤️
