Rosalee

Hello! My name is Rosalee. I'm a petite basset who just turned 1 yr. 7 mo. My first owners lived on a ranch. They worried about me so much when I would wander off and not come when they called. They didn't realize that's what we bassies do! I only spent about a week at my foster home in Roseville. My foster mom, Erin, and her family were wonderful!! There were 2 older bassets there (they got a bit tired of my playfulness) and 2 human kids too. Then my new mom found me. She had lost her basset about a year before and had been looking for a younger, playful basset to compliment her other rescue pup. It was love at first sight! I've spent a wonderful summer in my new home in Placerville with my new big brother, Pax. He's a lab x and is only 3 months older than me. We LOVE to play together. Our favorite games are chase, tug of war, tag, wrestling, and then some more chase. Pax has taught me how to pull the stuffing out of our toys to get at the squeaker thingies...that's a lot of fun! We have a nice, fenced acre to play in and Mom takes us for walks everyday. I love to cuddle with her at night when she's watching TV (otherwise I'm not allowed on the furniture). Mom says she just adores my sweet, funny personality and thinks I have made our home complete. We owe it all to the wonderful folks at GGBR!! We will always be grateful to you for matching us up together. You're the bestest!!! Arrrooooooo!
