Rose

Rose is a 2-year-old black Lab/Pit Bull mix who is sweet and silly! At 50 lbs, she's the perfect medium size and an absolute dream of a dog.Her favorite things in life are belly rubs, pets, and humans. If you start petting her, she'll happily flop over for a belly rub every single time. She loves walks, long naps, and will absolutely sit on your lap if you let her. She's more of a companion than a toy-lover and doesn't care much for fetch, being close to her people is what matters most to her.Rose is house-trained and crate-trained, willingly going into the crate when left alone for extended periods. This was the easiest adjustment her foster family has had! She settled in with no problems at all and is very easy-going.She does well with other dogs but will need slow introductions to cats. She does not have experience with kids so a proper introduction is recommended.She's quiet (you may never hear her bark!), and does well when left alone. Her energy level is medium-low, making her a wonderful match for someone looking for a relaxed, affectionate companion rather than a high-energy athlete.Rose does have two lifelong medical conditions that are currently very well managed with medication. They don't slow her down or affect her quality of life, but they will need ongoing monitoring. It's important that she's fed twice daily, 12 hours apart. If you're looking for a loving, loyal, low-maintenance best friend who just wants to nap near you and soak up affection, Rose might be your perfect match.If you are interested in Rose, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $450.
