Story
Good with: Dogs Not good with: Small animals, children under 10 (out of caution due to prey drive) House trained: Yes Noise level: Moderate I'm Rosie, a Beldi (Moroccan country dog) and despite a rocky start to life, I'm here to bring joy and love to my forever home! My journey began overcoming challenges my mom and litter mates were poisoned and I survived being hit by a car. Thanks to a kind Moroccan foster I'm now thriving and ready for a fresh start in DC! Seeking a pup that already comes with training? Fits right into your household with little transition? Look no further! I am house-trained, do well in my crate, know tons of basic commands, and am easy on the leash (minus the occasional squirrel or cat). I'm a confident and happy pup who loves adventures, meeting new people, and playing with other dogs. I'm always up for new experiences. I'm a smart and eager learner having already mastered commands like sit, down, crate, paw/shake, heel, and of course my name! Treats are my weakness and I'm more than willing to learn new tricks or good training habits. Squirrels and small critters catch my eye on walks but I've made huge improvements in my leash skills and know the command "heel" which makes walks easy according to my fosters. A home with cats or small animals might not be the best fit due to my natural inclination to chase. I'm fully potty and crate trained and I've embraced the luxury of house living. Dog toys are my go-to for chewing and after a good walk or run I love to relax at home. I'm not shy about vocalizing my thoughts but I am learning that not every thought needs to be shared. I might still give a few whines or barks to communicate with my family if I want something or hear noises outside. While I wouldn't be a great fit for a household with small kids (under 10), I'm a big fan of attention and affection rubbing up against legs for pets and occasionally going through the middle of your legs to be extra cutesome say I'm a bit cat-like. My foster family adores my sweet and goofy nature. I love going between their legs for attention or sitting on their feet for pets, and I'm extra cute when I prance around the yard with my favorite toy. I've easily settled into their home, enjoying playtime with their dog and meeting all their friends. I can't wait to find a forever home where I can share all the love I've got to give! My foster guardian says: "Rosie is the biggest sweetheart and loves all the attention! You can definitely count her in on cuddling on the couch snuggling while watching a movie. She does very well with a dog that is of similar size & energy to her! She can be a little vocal when she hears unfamiliar noises outside though its only to alert us. Rosie is crate trained & has no problem hanging out & snoozing while we are out during the work day." Likes: Playing with toys, running around the yard or dog park, playing with other dogs, napping near my people treats! Dislikes: Bikes/scooters and squirrels/small animals (might bark or try to chase) My ideal home: A household that enjoys going for walks or hikes and playing fetch; an owner that is interested in a smart, trainable dog and is committed to maintaining the commands I already know; and/or a home with another similarly sized playful dog or an owner that is looking for a social dog that loves doggy playdates.
