My story

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

Hi there, my name is Rosie and I’m a 4 year old Goldendoodle currently weighing in at around 21 lbs. Best word to describe me would be sweet. And happy. I’m always wagging my tail.

I’m a pretty laid back little girl. I am good about entertaining myself in the house and love to play ball in the yard. I will bring it back to you most times. Also love to go on my walks, I have a little pep in my step and walk really well on a leash.

I can be a bit shy at first and may take a little bit of time to completely trust. I will get there though so please be patient with me. Once I trust, I love being around people, and if someone is home, I will be wherever you are. I do love to take my naps during the day and am a pretty good little sleeper at night as well. My preference is to be curled up next to my mommy when I sleep at night.

I do well in a crate, I may cry for a little bit once first put in there. Currently when home alone though I’m given a treat and left out. I do well if you don’t leave any papers at my level. Oh speaking of treats, I love my treats and just about anything you give me to eat. I am VERY food motivated.

I get along very well with other dogs, although I can tend to be a little pushy and jealous when it comes to affection. I guess I probably need to learn a few more manners. Nothing a little training can’t fix, and I do feel like I learn quickly,

I am potty trained, but sometimes you have to make sure I stay out long enough to do my business. I don’t want to miss anything going on inside, so I may not stay out as long as I should. The term Nosey Rosie may apply here.

Overall, I’m a very sweet girl with a lot of personality, just a little on the shy side. I know it won’t take long before you fall in love though. My big brown eyes and cute face are hard to resist. And I think I am ready to go to my new permanent family.

I have been vet checked, spayed, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, am up to date on routine shots including rabies and have been treated with flea & heartworm preventative. My adoption fee is $495.

Who We Look For

In short, Heather’s Foster Dogs is looking for responsible, dedicated, and loving pet owners for our foster animals. This means a couple of things:

-You feel that pets are an important part of the family. They do not spend their days and nights living outside in the yard, chained to a doghouse or locked up in a kennel. Pets belong safe and warm in your home.
-You understand that regular veterinary visits with a licensed veterinarian are important to maintaining the health and well being of your pet. This means regular exams, administering medication when prescribed, and keeping your pet up-to-date on vaccinations.
-You believe in POSITIVE REINFORCEMENT training only and will seek the help of an experienced professional trainer if necessary or recommended.
-You understand that adding a pet to your family is a commitment that should last for the ENTIRE LIFE OF THAT PET.

To adopt a dog from Heather’s Foster Dogs, you must…

-Be at least 21 years of age
-Have a valid form of identification (a driver’s license or
state ID)
-Verify that you are allowed to have a dog of the breed
and size where you currently live
-Understand that a fenced yard may be required for a
dog you are interested in
-Understand that training may be required for the dog
you are interested in
-Understand that HFD reserves the right to check
veterinarian and personal references
-Bring along all household members including any
resident dogs or children to meet the dog you hope to
adopt

TO ALL POTENTIAL ADOPTERS: Heather’s Foster Dogs is dedicated to eliminating shelter overcrowding once and for all. We understand the only way to really achieve this goal is by cutting down on the number of unwanted animals born every year. As such, HFD tirelessly promotes spay/neuter for all companion animals, and in fact requires this as part of our adoption agreement. If you currently own an animal that is intact (meaning it is NOT spayed/neutered), and there is no medical reason as to why your pet has not been spayed/neutered, HFD cannot in good faith approve you to adopt one of our foster animals.

PLEASE ALSO NOTE THE FOLLOWING: Heather’s Foster Dogs does NOT ship animals. No matter where you live, no matter how far, you will be expected to meet with HFD in person for your adoption interview and pet pick up.

HFD reserves the right to refuse adoption to any applicant if we feel they are not the best fit for the animal they’ve applied to adopt.

And please, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask. Email Heather’s Foster Dogs at heathersfosterdogsinfo@gmail.com and we will be happy to speak with you further.

More about this rescue

Heather’s Foster Dogs strives to educate people through public interaction and to ease shelter populations by placing animals in temporary foster homes where we can address medical and behavioral problems while actively searching for permanent placement. Together, we seek to promote compassion and kindness to all animals, to increase awareness of companion animal overpopulation, and to advocate for responsible pet ownership.
