My story

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

At 15 years of age, believe it or not, Roxy is still foxy! OK…so she can’t see or hear, but she’s thoroughly adorable and as sweet as strawberry jam.

Roxy recently had a a dental workup and didn’t require any extractions. Yay! In addition, this ‘lil old lady was just given a clean bill of health, outside of simply being blind/deaf. Once familiar with her surroundings, Roxy manages to navigate her world with ease. She has a keen sense of smell and likes to sniff for treats thrown around the room. She has a hearty appetite and she’s very food motivated.

Reliably housebroken, all you need to do is carry this 9-pound bundle of fur outside, place her on the ground, and she will do her business. If the outdoors is unavailable, Roxy will go on a wee wee pad at home. She’s that easy!

Roxy gets along well with all humans, as well as other dogs. She is non-confrontational, very sweet, extremely easy-going, and super affectionate. She enjoys lounging around, sitting next to someone on the couch, being pet, being cuddled with, and just being loved. She is quiet, low-maintenance, and very grateful for the kindness that is shown to her.

A total sweetheart, Roxy deserves a chill retirement home to enjoy her golden years. She doesn’t ask for much, and yet has so much to offer. C’mon…she will absolutely melt your heart!!!
