My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Rosie… her story is a sad one. She was a loved, well-cared for and fully vetted best friend and companion to her owner, who sadly is ill and no longer able to care for her. This almost 6 year old chiweenie was a loyal and devoted companion to her person, but wasn’t exposed to a lot of other people and is a nervous protective one-man or woman dog. Once she bonds she’s cuddly and playful, but will need a calmer adult home without many visitors or where she can be put in another room when people come She warmed up to us very quickly and once she loves you she’s a velcro dog. She’s always lived with other dogs and cats and especially seems to know her own kind- she joined right into our pack of puppy mill chiweenie girls and thinks she’s one of them now. 😝
