About Roxy (with Rocky)
Say hello to Roxy, a confident and affectionate girl who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to ask for it! Since moving into foster care in early October, Roxy has been thriving alongside her buddy Rocky and two other dogs. She’s been wonderful with the kids and enjoys meeting new people—especially if they’re ready to give her attention and pats!
Roxy is a little more assertive than Rocky and will gently let the other dogs know when she needs her space, especially during her deep rest time. She’s not aggressive—just a girl who values her boundaries. 💅🐾
She’s affectionate, social, and not bothered by stairs or new environments. Roxy is the kind of dog who will happily curl up beside you after a walk and soak up all the love you have to give.
What Makes Roxy Special:
💕 Affectionate and people-focused
🧍♀️ Confident and assertive
🐶 Gets along well with other dogs (but values her space!)
🧒 Great with kids
🪜 Not fazed by stairs
🧘♀️ Calm and well-adjusted
Rocky's Ideal Home:
🏡 A loving home with respectful children or adults
🐕 A home with or without other calm dogs
🧍♀️ Someone who understands dog body language and respects her need for space during rest
💫 Rocky & Roxy are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. They balance each other beautifully—Rocky brings the softness, Roxy brings the confidence, and together they make the perfect team. If you’re looking for a calm, affectionate, and low-maintenance duo to complete your family, these two are ready to steal your heart (and maybe your bed!). 🛏️🐾💕

Adoption details
Please do not apply to adopt via our animals' PetRescue profile.
Follow the links below to be directed to the Wollongong City Council website, and find your preferred animal's online profile.
Once in the online profile, scroll down and click the link to complete an adoption application. Once received, a member of our team will be in touch to discuss your application and suitability for your preferred animal.
If we deem the animal to be suitable for your home and lifestyle, an in-person meet and greet may be organised. Should your meet and greet be a success, you can take your new furry friend home that day or following their desexing surgery. Our team will manage all your animal's paperwork, including ownership and vaccination documentation.
