ROSIE IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN, AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO VA ONCE ADOPTED! Hi, I'm Rosie! I'm a friendly, happy girl who truly believes everyone is a friend that I just haven't met yet! I am an 11 month old mixed breed who weighs 45 and is housebroken. I get along with both cats and dogs, so I'd fit right into a multi pet home. I absolutely love belly rubs, cuddling, and being close to my people! I am currently learning my manners and working on sit, stay, and lay down. I am not crate trained, but I do love having a space to stretch my legs. A secure, fenced yard is important because I enjoy running around and playing outside. If you're looking for a sweet, affectionate companion who will greet you with love and a wagging tail everyday, I might just be your girl! Rosie is fully vetted.

Story

Zeus is a playful 8 year old that loves to sit on your lap. He likes to go for a ride and will sit up in the seat beside you to watch everything. His owner passed away so he is kind of lost right now hoping that he finds a new home with caring loving people as soon as possible. Zeus was housebroken but could use a refresher course as his owner was very sick before passing away and was unable to take him outside for his potty breaks at times. A loving person that would put a lot of care into him would have a friend for life. If you would like to add the playful man, Zeus to your home, please respond by using the big black button marked " Ask About Me" and we will send you an application. These dogs are being fostered in TN but included in your adoption fee is transport to a location near you by Rescue Riders Pet Transport, the most animal-friendly transport on the road.
