Rescued Papitese - Rosie

Got any food for me?

She is a wonderful Papitese we adopted through a rescue shelter. Her mother was Maltese and her father was Papillon.

She was badly abused before we got her and have had to work hard to make her feel secure. She now is able to be in public without wanting to sit on my head.

She used to get the pink stains on her face until we found she was allergic to wheat. Now she only gets them when she steals a sandwich or a piece of pizza!! However, if you tell her she is getting fat, she won't eat for a couple of days. Has to keep her Maltese driven figure!!!

Rosie and our Austrian Terrier Cami get along really well and enjoy running in the park. They play "chase each other" before bedtime every night.

We are so happy she joined our family.
