More: Rosie came to us from a couple who found they couldn’t keep a dog in their apartment in NYC. Yay for us and Rosie! She loves the country. Rosie is naturally obedient and will play when you want and chill when you can’t. She absolutely loves the water no matter what the temperature, and is oddly passive with other dogs but fiercely protective of us if she spots anything wild like a coyote , fox, or even a squirrel lol. At almost 14 years young and now deaf, Rosie still takes 2-3 mile walks in the woods everyday, loving the sniffs and of course jumping in any mud she can find along the way.
