I got Rosie from an animal shelter in my town last September and she's been such an amazing girl.
She's my first ever pet and I'm so glad to have her in my life, she's already helped me immensely through some tough times. She's a little over a year and 3 months old, I got her when she was 4 months old. She came to the shelter as a stray dog from a costal community and needed a good home. I had been helping at the shelter for a couple of years by the time she came to the shelter and I absolutely fell in love with her. What set my mind to do what I could to get her is when she wouldn't listen to anyone else but came to me and sat down next to me the first time I met her.
Since then, she's been by my side and even comes with me to the shelter when I do repairs out there or lend a hand. She's become a bit of a therapy dog for the other dogs at the shelter and has made a lot of friends already!
