My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Roxy Garfield A180488
54 lb. spayed female, approx 3 years old

-L👀K at Miss Roxy rockin’ the Christmas bow in her hair!
-She can start off a little anxious but quickly settles in when she knows you
-She loves to jump up in your lap for cuddles and kisses
-She loves pets, and butt scratches make her wiggly and tap dance her feet all around in excitement. It’s quite comical….and adorable….and a sight to see!
-She’s a “leaner” and presses her whole body into you for love!
-She’s loves snackies, “sits” and takes them like the good girl she is!
-She’s playful and likes toys and is just a fun girl to hang out with!
-Pulls a little bit on leash but not horrible
-Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros

Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids

•Meet all of our adoptable pets on our website friendsofdacc.org/adopt

•Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment.

•Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in.

•There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption.

•To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering.

**And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home. Staff will go over how to slowly and properly introduce them after a decompression period.**

•The shelter is open 7 days a week from 10:30-5:30
