When they say.... STOP and smell the ROSES.... they weren't talking about ME!! lol.... however, if that is what you want to do daily in my last years... I am FINE with it!!
My name is Rosemary, and I am an older pup with the love of walking adventures and car rides... even though my legs are bowed with arthritis, I LOVE having adventures AND ALSO would be content to snuggle on the couch watching movies with you!!
I am already almost 12 yrs old and have been hanging with the rescue since August of 2022, just waiting for my FUREVER HOME!! That is like...919 DAYS!! I mean, i LOVE my rescue peeps, but CAN'T SOMEONE GIVE ME THE HOME I WANT????
I really love going on walks & I like those walks even better if I get to decide where to go! So yes, I may be a little bossy and stubborn but you will love me anyway, because I will give you ALL MY HEART!
I LOVE SNACKS and I take them very gently & I am NOT picky!
I am a gentle girl, and just really want a couch to hang out on while you spoil me!
We KNOW there is a home out there for this arthritic girl, she is so so loving with her people, PLEASE give her the home she deserves in the last years of her life!!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
