Rosemary is a quiet, sweet girl who was a good momma to a litter of puppies when she came to us. She is still trying to figure out her place in the world and would benefit from a quiet home with a fenced yard. Before going into foster, Rosemary escaped from a volunteer while on a walk, and it took several days to catch her as she is very scared and unsure. She is now in the home of an experienced foster family who has a fenced yard. Rosemary is leash-walked daily as she spooks easily. When she first arrived in foster, Rosemary wanted to stay in her crate and would bury herself under blankets, beds, or anything she could find. After a week, she stopped covering herself up and started preferring her crate to be in a more central area. Rosemary now shows interest in the goings-on of the other dogs in the household, and although she prefers her crate, she will come out now and then to explore a bit of the house. Rosemary sleeps in her crate at night but has the option to be out during the day. She has not had any accidents in the house and seems to be housetrained. She will sit by the door when she needs to go out. She is an escape risk. She is still quite cautious about being outside, and once she has done her business, she will let you know she wants to come back in. Stormy weather does spook her, and she is best closed in her crate until the winds and rain subside.
Ideal Home
Rosemary would thrive in a quiet home with a fenced yard. She is an escape risk and spooks easily, so a secure outdoor space is essential.
Ongoing Health
Rosemary is heartworm positive and has started a "slow kill" regimen of medication. Heartworm is not contagious and would have easily been prevented had she been on monthly HW preventative.
Training & Support
Rosemary is an escape risk and needs to be monitored closely when outdoors. She spooks easily and can be nervous during stormy weather. She is housetrained and will signal when she needs to go outside.
