Rosie







Rosie is a delightful little mix—half Italian Greyhound and half Chihuahua, we think. Standing 14 inches tall and weighing 18 pounds, she’s a sturdy girl with plenty of pep. She celebrated her 10th birthday at the end of January, but you would never guess it watching her run and play. Rosie is a youthful senior with lots of life left to enjoy.
She had a dental in February, has a clean bill of health, and is up to date on her vaccinations. Rosie came to rescue after her beloved person passed away and is now hoping to find another family to love.
Rosie adores people and always wants to be close to her favorite human. Her foster mom says she hasn’t had a single potty accident—even through the winter! She is fully outdoor potty trained and walks beautifully on a leash. She’s also crate trained and sleeps quietly through the night.
A fenced yard is required because she loves spending time outside, and nothing brings her more joy than chasing a tennis ball.
To set Rosie up for success, she should be the only pet in the home and live in a home without young children.
Rosie is being fostered in central Illinois.
