Meet Rose Petal

Age:4 Weight: 65 Location: Perkasie, PA Nicknames: Rosie, Ro Ro, Rosie Rue Good with other dogs?: No, must be the only dog in the house. Rosie is very unsure about other dogs. She has been muzzle trained and it would be best for her if she was muzzled around other dogs. Please don't be hesitant about Rosie and her muzzle, she certainly isn't! Good with cats? no Good with children? unknown, will not be adopted to a home with kids under 10 Activity Preference: Needs a couple walks a day., Needs in-house activities, Low maintenance overall but needs quality outside time., Will go with the flow IQ: Smart Rose Petal's favorite things: Rosie LOVES to be with her people, so CUDDLES, CUDDLES, and more CUDDLES. She does enjoy bones and stuffies to nibble on and treats of any kind. Rose Petal is good at: staying in a crate, behaving in the house, going for car rides, making me feel safe, cuddling, following commands Ideal home: no children, quiet environment, a fenced yard Training Needs: socialization with people, socialization with dogs Health issues: Meet Rose Petal Oh, Miss Rosie Rue!! This cuddle bug enjoys spending every minute of her day with her people. She may be stand offish at first, but man once she loves you…all bets are off…she will be yours forever! Rosie has been hanging with her foster mom for a bit now and we can't tell you how much she has come out of her shell. When Rose Petal came to ABR she was very scared, very standoffish, VERY UNSURE. Most of that has dissipated and her goofy, silly side has really come out. Found as a stray in Philadelphia, Rosie's past is completely unknown. This does mean she has some quirks. The biggest one is her anxiety of people and dogs she does not know. This has led to Rosie being muzzle trained. She has really adapted to wearing a muzzle, and she still looks stinking adorable. The Rosie Rue has made tremendous strides while wearing her muzzle. She and her foster mom spent a week away from their home kid/dog/house sitting. During this week Rosie met a former ABR alum and was able to co-exist with him while wearing her muzzle. She met new people and LOVED the attention. With people, she will be able to be without a muzzle after the initial meeting. For Rosie, it's all about gaining her trust. Once that trust has been gained, you will have acquired a grade A cuddler! PLEASE READ: Adopters will not be considered without completing an application. Please visit www.AmericanBulldogRescue.org to apply! Remember - Adoption is always the best option! If you can't help by adopting a homeless pet, please consider making a tax-deductible donation to American Bulldog Rescue, 4 Terry Drive, Suite 1D Newtown, PA 18940 or paypal [email protected]. We cannot place dogs in homes with children under 10 unless that dog has lived with kids or is in a foster home with kids. Thank you.

Adoption Process
All interested people must submit an application, which is on our website. If the application appears to meet our qualifications we follow through with vet and personal references and background check. If those pass, we perform a home visit. If successful and up to our standards, the applicant schedules to meet the dog. If foster family and the adoptive family are happy during that meeting, the applicant signs a contract and can take the dog home. We require a donation of $400. They receive the dog's vet records and a copy of their contract.
