Story
Rosetta is ready to light up someone’s life! This one-year-old, 29-pound Basenji mix is a bundle of fun, affection, and intelligence wrapped up in a sleek little package. When Rosetta first arrived at Home Fur Good, she was recovering from an upper respiratory infection that had landed her on the e-list at the county shelter. With time, love, and care, she made a full recovery. Now she’s healthy, happy, and ready to find her forever home! Rosetta is bursting with energy and enthusiasm for life. She’s playful, athletic, and always up for an adventure. Whether it’s zooming around the yard, chasing toys, or going for a jog, she’s happiest when she’s moving. Because she still has plenty of puppy energy, Rosetta will thrive with an active owner who can give her daily exercise and structure. She’s treat-motivated and very smart, which means training will be both fun and rewarding. At heart, Rosetta is a loving girl who’s eager to bond closely with her person. She’ll be your loyal sidekick, ready for every walk, cuddle, and car ride. Rosetta’s $250 adoption fee includes her spay, vaccinations, microchip, and a free wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital. Call 602-971-1334 to schedule an appointment or visit Thursday–Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. to meet this beautiful girl!

Story
HELLOOO new family! I am so excited to meet you! I'm gonna have you giggling nonstop because I'm so happy and goofy. I was born without the piece of my brain that helps me balance (*cerebellar hypoplasia), so I wiggle all over the place. Basically I just love to dance funky all the time! I'm probably gonna be famous soon, so you should adopt me before the pup-parazzi finds me and the whole world wants in on this cuteness. And don't worry, I'm not going to get any worse--I just need you to love me as I am: crazy dancer but always happy to see you. Bonus? I'm already kennel & potty trained. Just because I'm goofy doesn't mean I don't know how to behave! Contact Mayday if you'd like to meet me and I promise to show you all my moves! Ali might be good with older children and would do best in a home without other dogs. *Cerebellar hypoplasia is a permanent neurological condition that causes permanent balance and coordination issues. Cerebellar hypoplasia causes jerky movements, tremors and generally uncoordinated motion. The animal often falls down and has trouble walking. To manage this condition for your pet, it is vital that you understand your pet's physical limitations. As your pet may have difficulty controlling movement, you may need to assist your pet when eating and drinking. Providing your pet with a safe environment is essential. Due to the imbalance and wide stance, stairs and uneven ground may cause a hazard. A non-slip, flat surface, such as carpeting, is an ideal environment for your pet.* If you are interested in adopting or fostering, please visit our site at www.maydaypitbullrescue.org or send us an email at info@maydaypitbullrescue.org ##654651##
