Rosie’s Story
Rosie was rescued after spending the first six years of her life with very little human interaction. Although she was a very sweet and affectionate dog, Rosie was wary of new people and fearful in unfamiliar situations. Shortly after she was adopted by a loving and compassionate family, Rosie slipped out the garage door of her new home. A search party was assembled and the community spent weeks tracking Rosie’s movements in hopes of safely reuniting her with her adoptive family.
Tragically, after more than two weeks on the loose, Rosie was struck by a vehicle and passed away. To ensure her legacy lives on, Rosie’s family and friends are determined to share her story, so her life can have a positive impact on other dogs like her.
