My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

COLTON is an incredibly adorable, happy, and affectionate loving boy. Despite being under a year old, he has already been through a lot. He ended up in an overcrowded shelter alone, terrified, and was even placed on the euthanasia list. He may have had a rough start, but it has not broke his spirt. He loves nothing more than his toy basket and will spend countless hours digging through for the perfect plushy to toss around. He is very eager to please his person and has learned some basic commands. He is fully potty trained and does not have any destructive tendencies except for chewing on the occasional Croc, but who would blame him. While he may not enjoy being crated, he does fine when left out. At night he enjoys curling up in his chair and will snore away.
Colton would love a home with a yard, some toys to play with, and someone to shower him with love and attention.

Today, we stand united, a team of dedicated individuals who have come together to turn stories of despair into narratives of hope.

Our hearts ache for the countless dogs in the southeast and beyond who face uncertain fates. Dogs that are teeming with potential, resilience, and affection, yet find themselves at risk of being cast aside. It's this very urgency, this undeniable call to action, that prompted us to start Rosie Rescue. Our mission is simple yet profound: to provide a lifeline to dogs in need, offering them a second chance, a warm embrace, and a future brimming with possibilities.

With a collective experience spanning years, our team brings a wealth of knowledge, unwavering dedication, and a shared commitment to animal welfare. We understand the trials and triumphs of fostering, the heartaches of seeing innocent lives on the brink, and the sheer joy of witnessing a dog take its first steps toward a brighter tomorrow. It is this deep-rooted understanding that fuels our resolve to create a haven where every wagging tail signifies a chapter of resilience, recovery, and renewal.

As you navigate through our website, you'll discover the stories that define us - tales of second chances, tales of unbreakable bonds, and tales of extraordinary transformations. Join us on this incredible journey of compassion and change.
