My story

Please contact Lowell Nelson (lowelln@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.Sweet Lady ROSALIE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:   Rosalie      Best Guess for Breed:   Boxer/Lab Mix    Best Guess for Age:   1.5 years as of April 2025        SEX:   Female   Approximate Weight:  46 lbs   Gets Along With:   Other dogs!  We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:   Shelter, needs a forever home!    Check out this video of Rosalie: https://youtu.be/AtxFpXCKqJE.   Special Adoption Considerations:   Due to the high demand for fosters, Rosalie’s only way for a freedom ride to DC is with an off-transport adoption with 2-week trial.  Please submit a questionnaire if you’d like to give her a chance at finding her forever home!    Rosalie is looking for:  Her forever family! As a young puppy, she landed in a shelter so far south in Texas, it's only 30 miles from the Mexican border - and the shelter routinely has 1200+ animals in its care. Despite having such an enormous number to care for, shelter staff do an amazing job with all their dogs and Rosalie is a great, loving dog and wonderful with other dogs, Unfortunately, there is a massively skewed ratio of available homes to dogs in the area - so her only hope of getting a home is out of state. This is a personal message from her about what she is looking for in a home:'A loving family who can give me plenty of exercise and attention.  I have a playful spirit and enjoy long walks, playing fetch, and exploring new places. My favorite thing is to be around my humans, whether we’re playing or just relaxing together.  Will you make my dreams come true?'  What My Foster Says About Me:   Rosalie has had a little time in a home outside of the shelter in Texas, here are Rosalie's comments on her adventure:  'Hi! I’m just returning from a Paw-jama Party, and I had so much fun! The family I was with said I was an extremely cuddly, loving, and sweet girl, and boy did I have fun!...Now, for a little about me…. I have so much love to give. I get along really well with other dogs, kids, people. Squirrels I find very interesting, and may be known to chase them. But that’s a conversation for another day. I am a carbohydrates girl and love being rewarded with bread, pastries, pasta, you name it!...I also really love water, and lounging by water. Pools, buckets, getting a bath, you name it, I love water. And my other passion is fetching balls and toys. Just for a few minutes, and then I’ll take pets and cuddling and just being by your side...I am excited to meet you soon and be your faithful furry companion!'  Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:      The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations and spay/neuter.
