This is Luna, she’s about ten years old. So cute and so friendly. She’ll end to be loved. She has one eye, had an accident with a cat. She is up to date on all her shots. She has demodex. She’s a great dog I just can’t keep up with the fees and vet visits and I’m never home and she requires a lot of attention.

She will play with cats but has never harmed them, lived with two cats. She is good with smaller dogs/puppies as well. She requires a fenced in yard or she will run off.

Story
Roxy is a very loving dog, especially loves females. She plays with two of my dogs very well and two she ignores and two she dislikes, which is why I need to rehome her. She is very strong and I supervise her when shes playing because she can get kind of rough. I said she wouldnt be good around children just because of her strength and that she weighs 55 pounds. I found her in Cheneyville on the grounds of a recovery center where they were feeding her scraps. I brought her to the vet and found that she had Heartworms and hook worms which I am in the process of treating and have treated. Shes up-to-date on all of her shots and is on heartworm prevention and I got her spayed last week. She's a voracious eater and is still quite slim. She follows me everywhere and is very calm and is good on a leash. However, she can get pretty feisty when playing with the other dogs. I've grown very attached to her, but it's too stressful keeping her separated from the two dogs. I have six dogs.

Story
Meet BUMBLEBEE ! Bumblebee and Firefly (not to be adopted as a pair) were found abandoned at a bridge in Alexandria, La. Bumblebee was matted beyond despair. We had to capture him (with the help of APD) and bring him to the vet office to sedate him and shave him. He will have beautiful hair no doubt once it grows back out. Bumblebee was "quirky" upon initial apprehensions but has settled in dreamy at his foster. He is a quick learner of routine and enjoys the comforts of home. We truly believe he was kept outdoors his entire life as a breeder dog and never groomed. He is learning love ! With all that entails he will require a fenced yard and a childfree home that gives him time and space to accept a new home (it took 2 days to cuddle his foster). 1.
