Rosie is an Apricot Female Mastiff, approximately 4-5 years old and was tied To a tree for five years & bred every season.....please save this soul and give her a forever home. Rosie has been with in rescue for a little while and is now doing splendidly, but still needs a family she can call her own for the rest of her life. Is that you?
From her foster family:
"Apparently when Rosie first came to us she had some abdominal issues- she was not using the food she was eating very well. She was given appropriate medications and finally is looking like a real mastiff, rather than a starving refugee. She is not on any medication now and is doing so well. When she came to live with me, she had no idea what a treat or cookie was – now she knows exactly what they are AND my friend, Carol has introduced Rosie to peanut butter filled kongs.
Rosie has been abused and neglected in the past, so she needs to know exactly what is expected of her; What you want her routine to be, etc. If she knows that, she will be a happy camper. Rosie would do well as an only dog – although she might do fine with a well behaved larger male dog.
She cannot be with little dogs or other small animals, as she is a little too focused on them and has some prey drive issues with them. She does pretty well on a leash, but could use some additional leash and obedience training. Rosie is a gentle soul.
Once Rosie knows how your home operates and what is expected of her, she will do well. She does very well with women, respectful children 10+ years of age and with a little more time, men. There is a world of difference in Rosie’s appearance and demeanor from when she first came into rescue."
Rosie deserves a loving home and family – are you that family?
