** Foster found!!
We are looking for a foster placement for Rosie, a 2-year-old Lab/Pitbull mix whose guardian is entering treatment until August 15.
Rosie is a very affectionate and sensitive dog who bonds closely with her people. She does well with adults and older children, and she finds comfort in snuggles, gentle chest rubs, soft voices, and a consistent routine. She is food motivated outside of high-stress moments and has been making progress with e-collar training (provided by owner).
Rosie does have anxiety, separation anxiety, and reactivity toward other animals. She has a high prey drive toward small animals and is reactive around young children. Rosie very much wants attention from her people and does not do well sharing space or attention with other animals, large or small.
Because of this, Rosie needs to be the only pet in the home. We are looking for a calm, structured placement with no dogs, no cats, no small animals, and no young children.
A secure fenced yard would be a strong asset for Rosie’s placement, as she can be reactive on leash and around other animals. Having a safe outdoor space would allow her to decompress, take bathroom breaks, and get some movement without every outing needing to involve leash exposure.
RTS will provide a muzzle for Rosie to use on leash walks as a preventative safety measure. This is intended to support safe, lower-stress outings while her foster gets to know her triggers, comfort level, and walking routine.
She is most comfortable sleeping in the same room as her caregiver. She benefits from daily exercise, including sniff walks and more active outlets like fetch.
Rosie would be a good fit for someone who has experience with anxious or reactive dogs and can offer clear boundaries, patience, routine, and a calm environment. She has no listed medical concerns or medications.
Please let us know if you would be open to reviewing Rosie as a potential foster fit.
