Rosebud (8/11)

When not sleeping or sniffing things, Rosie is busy at UC Davis making sure the students learn! She comes with me to class and is already top dog on campus. Strangers come up to me and say, "I don't remember your name--- but this is Rosie, right? Can I pet her?" . She is the best dog I could imagine-- sweet, loving and calm but with an independent streak. There is no tricking this lady! I loved her the moment I I met her and can't imagine life without her now! She is my first pet and I'm working hard to make sure Rosie has a wonderful forever home. We are working on some separation anxiety issues and she is already improved. We are looking forward to enrolling in tracking classes in the near future to hone her skills. (At home, we practice by playing hide-and-seek with treats.) I'd like to think her life with me is pretty sweet. There are lots of wonderful smells and people, as well as yummy treats and comfy places to rest. She only has one indignity to suffer-- letting me paint her nails. The result is a very sassy, flirty Basset that stops traffic! Thank you so much to Golden Gate Basset Rescue, and especially to Cait & Mike (Rosie's fosters). - isabel
