Roxi is a beautiful Chocolate Lab mix who survived on her own in Kentucky before being rescued. She can be shy and nervous with new people, but once she feels safe, she becomes a loving, affectionate companion who enjoys cuddling, attention, and giving kisses. Roxi is food motivated, walks well on leash, rides well in the car, and is not destructive.

Ideal Home

• Patient adopters who will give Roxi time to build trust
• Older children are recommended because she is shy at first
• A home with a yard is preferred
• Another dog is not required, though one could help her confidence
• She may possibly live in an apartment
• She is good with women, men, dogs, cats, and children

Ongoing Health

Roxi is spayed and has been treated for whipworms and Lyme disease.
