My name is Roxy (Foster or adopter needed)!

Meet Roxy - your new bestie.

Look at that smile! Roxy is a 4-year-old, 60-pound pitbull mix whose personality is just as warm and joyful as her big grin. She’s the total package: friendly, calm, playful, and always ready for her next adventure.

Roxy’s Best Qualities:

• Dog-friendly — she enjoys the company of other pups
• Leash trained — great for walks and outdoor fun
• House trained — well-mannered indoors
• Crate trained — comfortable and relaxed in her space
• Great with children — gentle and sweet with little ones
• Loves people — affectionate, social, and eager to make you smile

Roxy is currently a bit overweight, so she’s looking for an adopter who can help her get back to a healthy weight with regular exercise and a good diet. She’s already got a positive attitude—she just needs a partner to cheer her on and enjoy the journey with her!

If you’re looking for a loyal, happy, adventure-loving companion who will brighten every day, Roxy is ready to go home with you.
