December 19, 2017 – Rosie is in great health and the perfect weight- no issues at all. Rosie is doing much better walking on a leash but still needs a bit of coaxing to get her harness on. While walking, she will bark at people, but is very friendly when they are able to approach and greet her. She loves any form of attention! Rosie looks forward to mealtimes. She sits on command and waits patiently for us to put her food down. We make her wait till we give her the okay to eat.  Rosie sleeps in her crate with a fuzzy blanket. We keep her on our main floor and we don’t hear a peep out of her all night until morning and she can hear people talking. She also likes sleeping on a blanket on the furniture next to someone.  We love finding out new things Rosie likes to play and do each week! We have noticed she is fond of gentle tug of war type play as well as dragging her bed around our living room and she has a great love for thin socks! Rosie isn’t a big fan of big dogs that get in her personal space. She also isn’t too sure about cats from her vet visit a few weeks ago. I will re-introduce her to our neighbours cat this week and see how that goes. She does like gentle, non- hyper dogs. Rosie loves everyone she meets and vise versa! She does very well with our 9 yr old son though. Rosie is full of energy and is wiggly when we pick her up and will attempt to jump down when held. Rosie is very inquisitive! She likes to know what’s going on all the time!

December 17, 2017 – Rosie is doing very well.  She’s good with other dogs and she’s an active girl.  Rosie would do good with another dog or as an only dog with active family.

December 11, 2017 – Rosie’s vet visit went well!- she had a few teeth extractions along with a cleaning, micro chipping and a pedicure.  Rosie has had a few accidents in the house since her arrival. She is doing much better walking on a leash. She will still stop midway and not walk and have to bribe her with a treat or food to continue on our way. She still is not a big fan of doing her business while walking and prefers to do so in our backyard. Rosie eats well and quick! Rosie will lay beside us on our couch and not even budge when we eat something beside her.  Rosie is definitely a cuddler!- she loves nothing more than to be close or on you when your sitting on a couch or chair. Rosie likes her toys and she likes small tennis balls. She also has an obsession with stealing socks. She won’t chew them, but will take them and place them in random spots.  The only fears we’ve seen are big vehicles and she doesn’t like to be left alone in a room. She also is uncomfortable when someone hovers over her. She’s a follower of myself ( her foster mummy) particularly and will follow me everywhere in every room. If she cant see me, she will wimper until I am in view. She has learnt pretty quick not to be in our dining room when we are eating or in our kitchen when preparing food. She happily sits in the doorway watching us.  Rosie the nosy pug is a very sweet cuddly dog!

December 5, 2017 – Rosie is a very sweet girl, she hasn’t had 1 accident in the house since she came in.  It doesn’t seem that  she has been walked on a leash often. She waves all over the place and is startled by big vehicles. She even thought she should stop mid-way in a field during our walk last night and wouldn’t budge ! She also doesn’t like walking in tall grass.  Rosie eats well with no aggression. You can put your hand in her bowl with her consuming food. She does however eat very quickly.  Rosie loves to be on the couch and often on us under a blanket when catching up on sleep. She was quite restless last night and ventured from bed to bed all through the night. Rosie likes her toys. She doesn’t seem to know what to do with a ball though. She likes it when we initiate play. From what we have observed with Rosie so far, the only fear we’ve seen are big vehicles and doesn’t like to be left alone in a room. She also is uncomfortable when someone hovers over her. She’s a follower and will follow us everywhere in every room. We are teaching her that personal space is important when her human friends prepare and eat dinner so she doesn’t stepped on.  Rosie is a quick learner and we are confident that she will have no problem learning other new things introduced to her.  We should also mention that when we were at the vets yesterday, there was an office pet cat. She really seemed unsure of what that furry thing with the long tail was!  We have nicknamed her Rosie the nosy dog!- she likes to take socks! she won’t chew them, but will take them and move them around our house if given the opportunity. She also likes to crawl on her belly and stretch her back legs and pull herself all over the carpet. When she’s in a vehicle, she is very eager to see what her surroundings are. Including looking at other people while driving by or at red lights. To sum things up, Rosie is a sweetheart!

December 3, 2017 – Rosie was surrendered by her owner.  She’s 5 years old and she’s spayed.  Rosie is good with other dogs and she will be going to the vet this week for a complete check up.  Stay tuned for more on this beautiful girl as we get to know her more.
