About Rosey

Rosey is a super-sweet, affectionate girl who loves cuddles, belly rubs, playing ball, and pretending she's a lap dog. She's gentle around food, potty trained, sleeps through the night, and is calm in her kennel. She hardly ever barks without a reason, and she loves playing with her schnauzer brother and anyone else who wants to play with her. Rosey knows basic commands and has been making progress with her training. She can get excited and jump when you first come home, but we've been working on it and she's doing well. She pulls on the leash about half the time. Her nose can distract her from recall: she does come back, but often on her own timing, so she needs continued practice coming directly when called. She can also counter-surf if left alone with food within reach-especially a casserole dish. Ask me how I know! She likes riding up front in the van and doesn't enjoy riding in the back. Loud noises can make her jumpy, so I'm not sure she'd be comfortable as a bird dog. Rosey is 53 pounds and looks like a full-breed wirehaired pointing griffon. Her DNA test showed 64% wirehaired pointing griffon, though I can't remember the other breeds. This is heartbreaking for me. Rosey was a stray in Houston, Texas, and became a foster fail because she was just so darn cute. I'm 57 and will have shoulder surgery in December, followed by surgery on my other shoulder soon after. I won't be able to walk or run her during my recovery, and I don't have land or a dog park where she can safely run. I live in a small Alaskan village, and getting to Juneau requires a flight or ferry. I'm looking for a temporary long-term foster or a loving new home. I'm willing to meet somewhere, since my village can be especially difficult to access in winter. Please contact me with any questions or if you think you might be a good fit for Rosey.
