I’m not going to pretend I can make Rosie look beautiful. That severe underbite is hard to hide. You’re going to have to look to her inner beauty to fully appreciate her.
Rosie is a 3 year old Boxer. Her owner passed away and she was brought to the Champaign County Humane Society when friends and family were unable to find a home for her. She’ll be with us for a week or so while she gets over a mild upper respiratory infection
You don’t have to spend very much time with her to find that she’s a real pleasure to be with. Rosie is very friendly and loves contact. She also gets along great with other dogs, is crate trained and housebroken.
It also turns out that Rosie has a very playful side. It doesn’t take very much to set her off on a mad dash around the yard, spinning and jumping with a big smile on her face. But she’s also quick to settle down and is very well behaved in the house.
Unfortunately, dogs like Rosie often get overlooked at the Shelter because of their appearance. But this is a dog that’s easy to live with and will make a wonderful family pet.
For more information on Rosie contact the Champaign County Humane Society.


I always believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and to that I add... Rosie is a BEAUTIFUL little Boxer girl! There is something about the subdued demeanor of a Boxer dog that has always intrigued me; very stately and calm. Sounds like Rosie has that easy-going demeanor and the spunky playfulness of a young teen dog too! Please keep us posted on how Rosie is doing... and I'd love to see more pics of her. :)

I had the pleasure of meeting Rosie today, and I have to agree with everything that has been said about her. She's sweet and gentle and I think she'll make a wonderful pet. We brought our two Chihuahuas (Ralph and Alice) with us, and Rose was curious but kind to both of them. She may not be ready for a dog beauty contest, but she has a big heart and is a joy to be around. I hope she finds a loving forever home.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet face. She sounds an awful lot like my very own brindle boxergirl and I'm sure a wonderful human will find and fall in love with her soon!
