Look who got adopted today! Rosie, the stray dog from the streets of Houston has a family of her own now! She has kids and a new Mom. A yard of her own and she’ll live inside! We are thrilled for Rose and her new family! What a great day!

Here is Rosie sleeping next to her baby brother when he fell asleep on her pillow.  She already knows to be gentle with the baby and she loves to play harder with the older kids!

Here is Rosie in her backyard playing with her brand new toys!

Rosie’s Story:

Rosie was wandering Houston streets, trying to survive on whatever scraps she could find and becoming more and more uncomfortable and weak from a skin infection in the many cuts and scraps on her once lovely, angel white coat. She was living the life of abandoned dogs everywhere. Rosie sure needed an angel (though, she is one herself, as you’ll soon see). A kind woman stopped to help, and kept calling every no kill shelter and rescue she could google, until she got a yes. Luckily, True Blue Animal Rescue made room and took her into their rehabilitation program. Rosie amazed TBAR staff right from the get go. She stayed loving and happy, no matter what she had to go through to heal. She was ready to play and kiss and wiggle with delight, even though her poor body was just bones, sores and exhaustion. You’d never know all that, looking at her original pictures, but it is important because it tells what kind of dog Rosie will be in her forever home. Rosie is fun loving and so very gentle with other animals, little kids and everyone she meets. She’s a medium sized dog (40 lb.’s when grown) and a boxer/terrier mix. She is great in the house, on a leash and in the car.
