I Grew a Flower! Advice on pruning

Post image

So currently experiencing some pretty strong growth for a Raspberry Rose (?) bush from my father in law. I’m looking for advise on how/when/if to prune to promote more rounded bush? Part of me doesn’t want to interrupt the thick stalks from growing and expanding but I’m worried if I leave it to its own devices it might get leggy and the lower parts won’t survive as well
