Rosie

Rosie, an almost 3 year old sweet red doodle (miniature poodle x red setter), is looking for a home with an active couple or family to give her lots of stimulation and cuddles❣️ She can be the only dog or go with another calm, gentle dog.

Weighing only 6.5 kgs, she is more miniature poodle in stature but she has those lovely long silky ears and the straight out tail of a red setter.

Rosie loves to play fetch with her soft sensory ball 🥎 and sharing a tussle with you and her soft monkey toy. She loves to have a snuggle on the lounge but also likes her own space. She will follow you everywhere.

Rosie previously lived on acreage with a cattle dog and although loves her walks 🐾 she has not had exposure to busy pedestrian areas and therefore is quite shy or worried on lead when near people and other dogs whilst out on walks.

Rosie is not a fan of other dogs that have high energy or are very boisterous towards her. She is still very much adjusting to suburbia.
In the home she is more confident and relaxed and loves receiving visitors.

Rosie has previously used a medium-sized doggie door, however, in the short time in care, we haven’t been able to get her to use the carer’s smaller doggie door even with the flap up. It’s a work in progress, but she taps on the glass door to let you know she needs to go out. Rosie is house trained and will hold on till you return home (4-5 hours tested) and she sleeps through the night on her own bed.
Her owner advised that storms or fireworks don’t bother her.

Whilst Rosie has not lived with a cat, she always enjoyed her visits to the vet so she could play with the vet’s cat.

A non-shedder, Rosie will need to be regularly groomed and in between brushed every 2-3 days with a gentle brush or comb to prevent matting.
