About Rosie (Berger allemand) in Frenchburg

Rosie is waiting for you at Menifee County Animal Shelter in Frenchburg, KY 40322. Meet Rosie! Rosie is a ~1yr old, 50 lb female spayed German Shepherd Dog (and husky?) mix looking for a home. She is black and tan with huge Fennec foxlike ears and light “eyebrows” that give her an adorably expressive face. This pup is a former stray from Menifee County Animal Shelter who is in foster.Rosie is a friendly, affectionate, smart and active girl. She hasn’t met a person she doesn’t like, plays constantly with our male Aussie mix and is always up for a car ride or new outdoor adventure. Rosie will need a home without cats or small critters (she has high prey drive typical of her breed/s, but no history of injuring a cat/small animal)A few things about Rosie from the foster:-housebroken-crate trained (quiet and doesn’t chew her bedding)-smart and sensitive, responds to changes in tone/body language and learns quickly -knows her name, come, sit, off, learning shake-walks well on leash (used to a head collar), enjoys going to parks (and yes, if you’re out in public with her you will be routinely stopped by people admiring her and asking what kind of dog she is and if she’s part coyote (she’s not )-curious and confident in new places, not reactive on leash or in the yard -very active, loves roughhousing with our dog and being outdoors but will also snooze on the couch by your side for hours -will bark/alert to cars/people arriving at the house, but very friendly in greeting new people-great car rider, quiet and calm, and appreciates a Starbucks pup cup-good for baths, brushing, nail trims and handling-respects a fence. Our backyard fence line is shared with a poultry pen and although she loves to watch the birds intently, she doesn’t bark at them or try to climb over or dig under the fence -not afraid of loud noises. You can routinely hear gunfire from an adjacent property in our yard and Rosie is completely unbothered. Will also sleep a few feet away from a screaming infant
