I am NC by the way.
The two branches to the left of the Roses. Are these suckers? They are about two feet away from the original. Ive got a branch holding one up

one of the only clusters of blooms

They are planted very close to the house, and you can see where the city installed the water pipes. Should I risk moving it? Apparently it grew there for ten years before they whacked it

It could be Don Juan or it could be the root stock coming up, Dr. Huey. It's hard to say from the pictures. If it reblooms through the season it's not Dr. Huey, he only blooms once in the spring.

Unless the leaves are being decimated I wouldn't worry about a few chewed leaves. Just give it a good hard spray with the hose once in a while to knock the bugs off and it should be fine.

If you like it where it is than just leave it alone. If it was there and blooming for ten years it's happy. If you want to move it to some where else I'd wait now until next spring when it's dormant and easier to move around.

Yes, I think those two other canes coming up are suckers. BUT could there have been more than one rose planted there before? It could be something else struggling to come back after the city trampled them.

I'm almost sure you have Dr. Huey. I keep a bush of it here with my other roses. It will bloom once in the spring and then grows. I know it's not Don Jaun. I grew Don Jaun for years. Stick a trellis behind it and take care of it and it will bloom like crazy next year.

It certainly looks like good old Dr. Huey to me. His roots are like asparagus...they can lay dormant in the soil for YEARS until conditions improve. Then, he will explode into mildewy, rusty growth in most places. If you like him, by all means grow him. Otherwise, it's time for the Round Up. You know how long his roots laid there, waiting for you to water. Think you can actually dig them ALL out? hehehe Kim

Seil- Only going by what the neighbor told me, there was only the one rose bush there. So definitely suckers then, yes? Im going to put the trellis up this weekend. Should I prune it back some first or no? Thank you!!
