Roxie is a loyal, playful girl who bonds deeply with her people. Once you’re in her circle, you’re in — she’ll be at your side, ready for cuddles, toys, and quality couch time.
She starts her mornings making sure you know breakfast is very important (and dinner is equally urgent 😉). During the day, she relaxes comfortably in the home, and in the evenings she’s happy to play, snuggle, and soak up attention. Roxie is house trained, crate trained, sleeps in bed at night, knows “sit,” “lay down,” and “shake,” and enjoys baths — she even loves water enough to sneak drinks from the tub faucet!
Roxie does well with other dogs and has learned to peacefully coexist with cats. She enjoys walks (and is continuing to work on her leash manners), loves toys, and is very food-motivated.
New people, however, are hard for her. Roxie is a shy girl! She needs a patient, adult-only home (or one with older teens) that understands she may take time to trust.
Roxie also has some ongoing medical needs, including hip dysplasia and skin/knee sensitivities, which are managed with joint supplements, a gentle diet, and routine care.
If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will love you fiercely, make you laugh, and grow more confident with kindness and consistency, Roxie could be your girl. 🖤
