RoseBud got her name because she was liberated right after Valentine's Day to start her new life

** adoption pending**Rosebud is a survivor of the Orangeburg, SC hoarding case. She has been in rescue for a year and a half learning to overcome her fears & healing physically from her ordeal. Dogs from hoarding situations are typically very comfortable around other dogs. They generally mistrust or fear people. Rosebud is no exception. However, she is at the point where she readily trusts new people.
Rosebud's ideal home would have 1 or more other calm, friendly dogs to help her find her way in the new environment. Ideally, she needs an individual owner or a small quiet family with a predictable routine. Also, every member of the family must be committed to earning her trust. She does trust women more easily than men typically. She does much better in a fenced yard when outside so this would be preferable.
Rosebud is crate trained. She is also pee pad trained. She is mostly potty trained but will have an occasional accident as she has not yet learned a way to alert when she has to go outside. She also gets overly excited about food and this will cause an occasional accident as well. 
Rosebud is very food motivated & intelligent. She would do well in obedience. I have started clicker training with her. She loves toys, especially ones that squeak. She also loves nylabones. She has grown to love car rides. She is still somewhat skittish on the leash the farther she gets away from home. This is the last big fear she has to overcome but I have every confidence that she will be successful and will learn to love walks as much as car rides. She loves belly rubs & butt scratches. She grunts when you hit the right spot. She responds well to her name. She knows 'sit' & 'beg'. She can develop a tendency to guard her resources because of where she came from. I can provide strategies to keep her in line!
