Meet Roxy: A Sweet, Loyal Companion Looking for Her Next Chapter
Roxy is an 8-year-old, 10-lb Maltese Mix looking for a loving home where she can shine. After losing her owner, Roxy is ready for a quiet, patient sanctuary where she can blossom at her own pace. Once she learns to trust you, she is a fiercely loyal cuddle bug who loves belly rubs, snuggling up, and sleeping nearby!
Quick Facts:
Age & Weight: 8 years old, 10 lbs (Spayed)
Health: Up to date on shots with a full dental workup. Currently completing treatment for Lyme Disease.
Hypoallergenic Potential: She has done remarkably well with her foster dad, who has allergic asthma, without triggering his allergies!
Favorite Things: Chicken treats, belly rubs, and hanging out with her favorite humans (she currently adores the 11-year-old girl in her foster home!).
The Ideal Home for Roxy:
Environment: A quiet, low-key household. She does best with children ages 10 and up who understand canine body language.
Dog Friends: Best as an only dog or paired with a respectful small dog who respects her personal space (she previously lived happily with her dog sibling, Nuno).
Patience & Boundaries: Roxy needs a family willing to give her time and space to warm up. She will nip if her space is invaded before shes comfortable, so clear boundaries are key.
Training & Habits: She prefers freedom over crates and leash walks, so a secure yard or indoor routine works best. She is currently working on perfecting her house training.
Give Roxy a little time, and she will reward you with a lifetime of devotion and love!
