Husky and Border Collie Dogs Available for Adoption in Fresno, California

Meet Roxy

Roxy is just 1 year old, a beautiful husky mix who came to us from another shelter-and she's been waiting since November 2025. Month after month has passed, and she's watched so many dogs leave while she's still here, hoping her turn will come.

The shelter environment has been hard on her. The noise, the stress, the constant waiting-it shows sometimes. She can get kennel stressed, but that's not who she truly is. Once you take her out, you see the real Roxy.

She's an incredible dog. She's super friendly with other dogs, walks nicely on a leash, and has the kind of energy that would make her the perfect hiking or adventure buddy. She could even do well with cats, given a slow and proper introduction.

Underneath it all, she's just a young dog who wants love, stability, and someone to finally choose her. She's been waiting for months... and she's still waiting.

To get a head start on the adoption process, you can also fill out the online pre-adoption application! After you fill it out, a dog care associate will contact you shortly. The form is found here: https://valleyanimal.org/dog-adoption-application/
