Rosie- Foster to Adopt

Copy this link into your browser to see Rosie's Facebook Recovery Album https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1276651091172660&type=3<br/><br/>Rosie is a very pretty active liver roan German Short-haired Pointer. We are so happy to be a part of her helping her get ready to find her new loving forever home.<br/><br/>November 2025: On October 14th, I received an email from the Kendal County Animal Control in Yorkville, IL. The shelter was full and she needed to get out ASAP. A witness saw her dumped out of a car on River Road in Yorkville. Her nails were overgrown, she had possible injuries to her body, including some pads torn from running on the road. She had also suffered from additional neglect as evident in the patches of hair loss on her back. She also has stains on her tail and back end from laying in damp stray- probably from being in a kennel outdoors. It was further discovered that Rosie and her sister had been listed on a Sandwich Facebook page for free and were given away and Rosie was possibly 6 years young. I networked Rosie for help as we didn't have any open fosters and she was breaking with kennel cough. It was a challenging few days as Rosie was a very sick dog and blood work showed she was anemic, had elevated white blood cells and she was also infected with Lyme disease. After a few days of TLC, Entyce appetite stimulant, and force feeding, Rosie started to get better and the day she starting eating on her own was such a relief. We even had a fun Halloween dress up pawty. A week after being at IBR HQ, she moved to a new foster where she has become great friends with 2 year old River the GSP. Her foster mom Wrenn- is working on some basic manners and Rosie is showing that she is a very smart biddable GSP. She is now ready to find her Foster to Adopt home. She is gun shy for sure-- could be the reason why she was dumped, so we are only looking for a pet quality home. We are also only looking for a Foster to Adopt home in the Chicago area as I will need to repeat her blood work to check her anemia prior to her spay in January. Rosie is having a great time playing with River and she was happy around all my dogs, so we'd like her to have a buddy in her new home. She will also need a safe fenced in yard-- NO EXCEPTIONS. <br/><br/>Copy this link into your browser to submit an online adoption application: <br/>http://illinoisbirddogrescue.org/adoption_procedure.htmlYou can also call Lisa@ 630-694-1359
