Rosie

Introducing Rosie – the fabulously unique looking and sweet natured Staffy x lady searching for the forever home of her dreams!

She is still feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment, as recently she made a big journey all the way from Wagga Wagga NSW to AAPS – but after only a few days on our care, our staff have already started to see Rosie’s wonderful personality begin to shine.

True to the staffy nature, Rosie becomes attached to her people and looks to them for comfort and guidance. She sometimes lacks a little bit of confidence in new environments, but we can’t blame her – this girly has been through a lot of stressful changes in the past few weeks! With a little bit of patience and a gentle approach, Rosie will quickly become your best friend and a very loyal companion.

She is an adorable little lady, and even though she is fully grown (22kg) she is still practically a puppy! She will benefit fantastically from some further obedience training in her new home to help her develop an even stronger bond with her future family and continue to build her confidence.

Rosie has met a few of our dog-friendly shelter dogs and seems to be very curious about them, but at this stage she is most comfortable keeping her distance and watching from afar with a waggy tail. She might like a home with a calm and well-socialised doggy friend, otherwise she could be your only pet.

She would be best suited to a staffy-savvy home with older children who understand that these dogs are truly just big babies who lack an understanding of personal space and love nothing more than a spot to curl up on the couch next to their favourite person (or on their lap if they can get away with it!)

She is a super special girl, and we can’t wait to find the incredibly lucky people who get to take this angel home!
