This dog has been spayed/neutered, is up to date on shots, on heartworm preventative and is microchipped.

Hi there, my name is Rosie Rose, and I am ready to be your ultimate sidekick! At 4 years old I have officially graduated from the wild puppy phase, and I am looking for a couch to call my own. For a while, my main job was being the best mom ever to a beautiful litter of puppies. I raised them with all the love in my heart, but now that they have grown up and found their homes, it is finally my turn to be pampered.

She is a smart girl and basic group training classes is recommended to help her learn commands, socialize with other humans and dogs, as well as build that fur-ever bond with you!

Medical Note

: This dog is being treated/has been treated for heartworm disease. Untreated heartworm disease can cause lasting damage to the heart, lungs and arteries, and can affect the dog’s health and quality of life even after the parasites are gone, possibly presenting as medical complications and/or new conditions in the future. Whenever possible, SOSARL advocates for following the

American Heartworm Society

guidelines for heartworm disease treatment as the safest and most effective methods; the active portion of this treatment protocol can take up to four months to complete. Once treatment is completed and the dog tests negative for microfilaria, the dog will be cleared to resume normal activity and will be ready to travel north and be placed into an adoptive home. This dog showed no symptoms of heartworm disease before or during treatment, and is expected to complete treatment with no complications. Please ask your Adoption Counselor for the specific treatment protocol used for and current status of this dog. Please check with your vet if you have any questions or concerns about this medical history.

An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.
