Adopt Rosie

Mixed Breed · Unknown · Young · 3 years

Rosie is a 3 year old mix of german and english pointers She is an extremely smart and very easy to train. She is slightly leash reactive with other dogs, we use a Halti collar and lead when walking her. She is better with bigger dogs, off lead in an open space. I would not recommend a household with young children. She would be best suited to a home with teens/young adults. She is very active and would require a minimum 1 hour walk daily so would be best suited to a younger person. She enjoys hiking, woodland walks(walks in general), the beach, her toys, especially tennis balls and treats. She will bark at strangers until she gets to know them, nothing a few treats and playtime won't fix. Once she gets to know you she is like Velcro, will stick to you and follow you around, she also understands “rest time” and what that means- normally after she gets her walk. She is very energetic. Her vaccines are up to date and I have her paperwork. She will be spayed on the 26/02/26. Contact Mary on

About Rosie

What life with Rosie looks like

Rosie is a young adult mixed breed dog waiting at Dogs Aid Animal Sanctuary in Dublin.

An young adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇮🇪Adopting from Ireland

Irish shelters require a home check (often phone or video) and an adoption contract. Animals are vaccinated, chipped, and registered. Cross-border placements to mainland Europe require the rabies titer test (TRACES system).

Frequently asked

Adopting Rosie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Rosie?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Dogs Aid Animal Sanctuary handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Rosie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Rosie if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Dogs Aid Animal Sanctuary will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Rosie already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Rosie isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Dogs Aid Animal Sanctuary early rather than rehoming privately; they know Rosie and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
