Story
Meet Sophie! Sophie is a beautiful 5-year-old Shetland Sheepdog weighing about 28 pounds. Her life was recently turned upside down when her owner became ill and could no longer care for her. Sophie is now searching for a loving, quiet home where she can feel safe and secure. She thrives in the company of other playful dogs, so a home with canine companions would be ideal. Sophie doesn't like men or fears them, and may nip out of fear, so she needs a women-only home where she can relax and build confidence. She has not been around children and would do best in an adult household. Sophie is potty trained and crate trained, but she still needs some work on her manners and basic commands. She is also learning how to walk nicely on a leash, so patience and positive training will go a long way in helping her blossom. Sophie is fully vetted—spayed, microchipped, current on vaccines, and on heartworm/flea/tick prevention. 📍 Adoption Info: Sophie is available for adoption in Arkansas. We can also adopt to neighboring states, but her adopter must be willing to travel to Arkansas to pick her up. If you’re ready to give this sweet girl the safe and loving home she deserves, please complete our adoption application today.

Story
Please contact Jamesa (roxysrescue@yahoo.com), 713-882-2610 for more information about this pet.ADOPTED!! UPDATE:  ISAAC has had the surgery to remove his cherry eye and all is well.  There is no medicine or daily care that he will need.  This is Isaac a 2 year old, 15 pounder who was very shy at first but warmed up quickly to the other dogs and his new surroundings. He is house and crate trained, my 2nd rescue for 2024 and he is extremely close to his buddy BUZBY. He follows BUZBY around like a shadow. They have a great time running zoomies in the backyard and playing chase. They do know there is a difference between inside and outdoor play. ISAAC is quiet and gives soft kisses. He is not bothered by the other foster dogs in the home but his buddy is BUZBY and he loves him. We think he is a Pomeranian/Corgi mix, he white coat is very soft and smooth and he does not mind you giving him head rubs. ISAAC has a cherry eye but is scheduled to have it removed this week before adoption. If you are interested in adopting Isaac, please submit an application on the website below' www.roxysk9rescue.org   ADOPTION FEE & APPLICATION REQUIRED   Roxxy's K-9 Rescue does not have a shelter, all of our dogs are raised in foster homes.  Each dog comes  spay/neutered (fixed), rabies shots appropriate for their age, and dewormed twice.  The dogs are up to date on vaccinations according to their age at the time of adoption.  They are microchipped, heartworm tested and on monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative.  ALL OF THIS IS INCLUDED IN THE ADOPTION FEE. We transport across the United States. Medical records will come with each dog at the time of adoption. Our organization is run by volunteers/foster parents, please be patient to give us time to respond to your emails and/or phone calls.  We will reply to you.  Thank you.         November 7, 2024, 5:10 am
