ROSELLA

Meet Rosella! She is a 13-year-old pitbull Bostan terrier mix weighing 47lbs. Rosella came to us in June of ‘25 as an owner surrender from a homeless veteran. This old gal doesn’t act a day over 2 years old. She runs, wrestles, plays with toys, chews bones, and still enjoys light to moderate exercise with our volunteers and her foster dad! Seriously, if you come and meet her you will not believe us that she is 13 years old, but she really is. Her foster dad reports that she is extremely snuggly and affectionate, giving kisses and cuddling up in bed! Rosella enjoys play bowing endlessly at every boy dog she meets, easy going strolls along a riverbank, and baking award winning pies. Her strawberry rhubarb pie with a lattice crust won the blue ribbon 6 years in a row at the Iowa state fair. If you have a thing for older dogs, but love the energy of middle-aged dog, call us and ask about Rosella and we will get you in touch with her foster!
