Rose, a young and friendly dog, is searching for a forever home where she can be showered with love and affection. This athletic girl is both affectionate and gentle, and she has a playful side that comes out when she's feeling comfortable. She may seem a little shy at first, but with a little time and patience, Rose opens up to show her loving and affectionate side. She's a smart girl who is trained in basic commands and knows how to walk on a leash. Rose would do best in a quiet home where she can feel safe and comfortable. She loves her walks and playing with her favorite squeaky toy, and she would love a home where she can get lots of exercise and playtime. Due to her shy nature, Rose would do best in a home without other dogs. She is looking for a family of her own to give all of her love to! If you think you could give Rose the loving home she deserves, please come meet her today!
