ROSIE (2) - HOUND / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Hound / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (medium coat). Meet Rosie: Professional Cuddler, Stick Collector, and Adventure Buddy-in-Training! At just 4.5 months old, Rosie has already mastered the art of living her best life. This sweet, spunky girl is the perfect blend of playful puppy energy and couch-potato charm. Looking for a hiking buddy? Rosie is ready. Need a movie marathon partner? Rosie is already claiming her spot on the couch. Planning a road trip? Rosie calls shotgun—as long as there's a pup cup involved. Rosie absolutely adores people and other dogs. She's never met a stranger and greets the world with a wagging tail and an enthusiastic zest for life. She especially loves: Playing with dog friends Car rides and field trips Rainy day walks Finding the biggest stick in the yard Treats, treats, and more treats Frozen Kongs Cozy blankets and cuddle sessions Pausing all important activities to scratch an itch Rosie is house-trained and will politely sit by the door and paw to let you know when she needs to go outside. She's also a champion sleeper, snoozing about 10 hours through the night and fitting in plenty of puppy naps between adventures. This smart girl already knows "sit," "off," and her name, and she's continuing her training with her foster family. She's eager to learn, especially when snacks are involved. Rosie walks well on a leash and loves getting outside, though she'll occasionally need a gentle reminder not to pull when something exciting catches her eye. Like many puppies, Rosie is still working on a few things. She's not a huge fan of her crate and experiences some separation anxiety, but she's making progress every day. She currently does best with a playpen during the day and sleeps comfortably in her crate at night when it's near her people. Rosie would thrive in a home that can continue building her confidence, keep up with her training, and give her plenty of love, playtime, and snuggles. In return, you'll get a loyal best friend who is equal parts adventure companion, cuddle bug, and comic relief. If you're looking for a puppy who can chase sticks, steal hearts, and then curl up under a blanket beside you, Rosie might just be your perfect match. ---------- Meet Rosie: Your New Best Friend! Looking for a puppy who is equal parts cuddle bug and adventure buddy? Meet Rosie, a 4.5-month-old hound mix weighing about 35 pounds, and she just might be the perfect match! Rosie absolutely adores people and would happily spend all day curled up beside her favorite human. But don't let her snuggly side fool you—this sweet girl also loves to run, play, and make new dog friends. She's currently living with another young dog, and the two have become best buddies. Rosie is a social butterfly who wins over everyone she meets, especially kids. When neighborhood children stop to say hello, she often rolls right onto her back for belly rubs! She's gentle, affectionate, and always ready to soak up attention. As a growing puppy, Rosie is learning her manners and making great progress. She already knows "sit," "no," and her name, walks beautifully on a leash, and is crate trained. She's highly motivated by treats and chew toys, making training fun and rewarding. Rosie is mostly house-trained when her people are home, though she can get a little nervous when left alone and may have an accident. More than anything, Rosie loves companionship and is hoping to find a forever family that will include her in their daily lives. A few fun facts about Rosie: Learning to play fetch (she's mastered the chase, but the return trip is still a work in progress!) Belly rub enthusiast Treat-motivated student Loves walks and outdoor adventures Expert-level snuggler Rosie is healthy, happy, and ready to find her forever home. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will shower you with love, make you laugh with her puppy antics, and happily curl up beside you at the end of the day, Rosie can't wait to meet you! Could Rosie be the missing piece of your family?
