Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Rosa is a beautiful and intelligent Presa Canario! True to the breed, she is a bit suspicious of anything you try to make her do and is mischievous! She loves to steal her foster parents socks to play with them. In addition to socks, Rosa is generally a very playful girl - she loves to play with toys and will toss them up to play with herself, will happily play chase or fetch, and just loves frolicking outdoors.
Rosa has an incredible story of resilience. She was found by a kind woman living in the woods behind her apartment building, between two busy roads. Rosa is named for Rosa, who fed her for 3 months but as the season change, and she had not come closer to being able to leash her, she brought in additional volunteers to help trap her. Being such a smarty-pants, it took another 2 months for Rosa to be trapped and she endured consecutive days with highs in the single digits.
Since coming into care, thanks to the patience and perseverance of her fosters, she's learning to be comfortable indoors again and to trust people. She has some hand shy-ness and is gradually increasing the size of her "safe space". Rosa is happy to follow her people anywhere when leashed up. She is completely potty trained and is a very polite and quiet house guest. Rosa is working with a trainer to work on her general fear of the human world and her desire to flee from anything that may seem scary to her. She is very fearful of sudden sounds and movements so going slow is a must. She's tolerant of handling and will happily jump in the car to head out on any adventures you desire!
Recently, Rosa has made a dog friend! She can be overwhelmed by rude, pushy, barky dogs but in general, she exhibits positive body language and interest in doggos and we believe she would thrive in a home with a respectful, confident, friendly pup. Everyone that has met Rosa has described her as having an incredibly sweet temperament. She is affection-seeking and loves to have her head rubbed and scratched. She'll even nuzzle you for more!
Rosa continues to progress at a fantastic pace, but any dog with this history requires incredible patience and kindness to help them reacclimate to living in a human run world. Rosa will be an incredibly rewarding addition to any home, who will provide joy and laughter for her humans!

More about this rescue
P3 is a united rescue effort to both save pitties and support veterans. At P3 we LOVE Pitties & we LOVE & RESPECT our Veterans! 2800 Pitties & Pittie Mixes are euthanized in overcrowded shelters every day, over 1 million every year. 22 Veterans commit suicide every day, over 8,030 per year. At P3 we find these numbers UNACCEPTABLE! P3 was created in March of 2024 with the goal of rescuing Pit Bulls and Pit Bull mixes from overcrowded shelters where they are at risk of euthanasia and providing the necessary training for them to provide emotional support, nightmare alerts, and pressure therapy during episodes of anxiety and stress so they can be paired with a Veteran struggling with PTSD reducing the risk of Veteran suicide. While we support our Veterans, our rescue is not limited to the placement of service dogs for Veterans only. Our Veterans program is only one aspect of what we do. We want to help EVERY pittie find the perfect furever family!
