Rosalie checks all those boxes and then some—she’s sweet, spunky, and a wonderful balance of playful and relaxed. With her soulful eyes and wagging tail, she’s ready to charm her way into your heart. Rosalie’s Story & Personality: Rosalie is a loving and gentle girl who just wants to be near her people. She bonds quickly and thrives in an environment where she feels safe, secure, and included. While she enjoys playtime and has spurts of high energy—especially when she’s playing fetch in the backyard—she’s equally content to settle into a warm spot on the couch for some snuggles and quiet time. She’s leash trained and easygoing with dogs, especially those who share her mellow vibe. While she hasn’t been tested with children or cats yet, her friendly nature suggests she may do well with proper introductions. Rosalie does have separation anxiety and gets vocal when left alone, so she’s best suited for someone who works from home or can spend most of the day with her. She's also a bit of a door-dasher, so caution is needed when opening exterior doors. Because she can get nervous during thunderstorms and startles easily when alone, she will need an experienced adopter who understands how to manage her anxiety gently and consistently. Rosalie’s Ideal Home: A calm, patient household with a fenced yard for safe play An adopter experienced with anxious dogs and separation anxiety A home with another calm, friendly dog to help her feel more secure Someone who is home most of the time No crate required, but a safe and cozy space is a must A family who can manage dietary needs with her urinary food and watch for any recurrence of bladder stones Ready to Welcome Rosalie into Your Heart and Home? Rosalie is a truly special girl who has so much love to give. She’s smart, affectionate, and ready for her next chapter with someone who will cherish her and give her the structure and comfort she needs. If you’re looking for a loyal companion to share in both playtime and quiet moments, Rosalie may be your perfect match. Comprehensive details are provided in the dog's description.
