Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Beautiful Roxie is a 3 year old purebred red smooth dachshund who is looking for her forever home. Roxy is a bit chubby at 24 pounds but with the help of her foster mom she is working on loosing her extra weight.
Roxie is a very sweet little girl who gets along well with other dogs in her foster home, however she is terrified of large dogs and would not do well in a home with a dog who was significantly larger than she is. She would like to have a home where she could have one or two dog buddies the same size as she is. Roxie has not been cat tested. Roxie is a bit nervous around children and would do best in a home with children who are calm and respectful age 10 and older.
Roxie is playful once she becomes confident in her surroundings. She is a very submissive girl. She would like a home where she can snuggle in the big bed under the covers every night! She loves to snuggle in with her foster mom in Maryland.
Roxie is a good traveler and is happy to go for car rides. This sweet and snuggly girl would like a home where her person could be at home with her as much as possible.
Roxie is not a fussy eater but it does take her some time to trust her surroundings so she may be cautious when she first comes home. Roxie will need a home that is willing to help her continue her weight loss journey. Dachshunds love their food and it takes great strength to say “NO” to their pleading looks.
This lovely girl is wonderfully house trained. Like many dachshunds she isn’t happy to go out in the rain and will ‘hold it’ until she can find a dry spot outside. Roxie will need time and patience in their new home to become accustomed to where their potty area will be and how to get there. All rescue dogs go thru a period of adjustment so understanding and patience is important,
This sweet and loving girl is looking for someone to love forever. Are you ready to open your arms and heart to her ? Apply to adopt sweet Roxie today!
