My story

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

Imagine skipping through a field of flowers on a warm spring day. That`s what spending time with me is like! I am Rosie, and I am delighted to make your acquaintance. I will place my head in your lap and gaze lovingly into your eyes, that is, once we are back inside after a good hike out in nature! I have been working hard to perfect my leash manners and not get TOO excited for my nature walkies, but I settle quickly and will find myself in your lap in no time. I will give your face gentle kisses until you need a break from my love. You can just toss me a bully stick, and I`ll curl up on my bed and keep myself busy. I do know sit, and the staff says they wouldn`t be surprised if I was also housebroken. I am still working out my feelings about other dogs (another dog wasn`t very nice to me before, but I`m all better now), so I`m slowly expanding my friends list. I DO know I want YOU to be on my friends list, so let`s share a cuddle!
