About Roxy
Cutie Roxy needs a human to form that special bond with that most canines thrive and benefit from. She's not looking to share that person with other doggy siblings either and is looking for an adult household.
Roxy appears to have had no formal training but her recall is improving and with positive reinforcement and encouragement she should be able to learn a lot more. She is starting to learn to walk on a lead but she will need support and encouragement as the big wide world is daunting at the moment.
Her confidence has slowly grown with her foster carer who is able to tend to her needs and pick up and carry her without issue - she now enjoys rolling over for a belly rub feeling secure in her surroundings
Bonding for this sweet girlie who has lots of love to give is of the utmost importance and will be the key to her happiness in her forever home, someone to train, play and snuggle with while gaining her confidence.

Adoption details
We are a community fostercare network, not a shelter, and our dogs and cats are cared for in private homes. Note that we are very careful where we rehome our dogs and cats and we have an intensive process. If you want a quick turnaround we are not the group for you. If you seem like a good match for the dog of your choice we will organise a telephone chat, a meet and greet and a property check. We offer a six-week full refund, free assistance for six weeks for any issues, and a lifetime takeback policy with a fifty percent refund of the adoption fee, and of course an invitation to our adopters’ Christmas party.
We care for our dogs and cats and we want you too as well. We know that genuine applicants have no trouble with this process and understand that if we refuse you a dog or cat, it is because you are not the best match for that pet.
Our commitment to the dogs and cats in our care is total and we treat each one as if we are passing on a family pet. This may not suit you so we point out that there are equally great dogs and cats available in pounds, shelters and with other rescue groups.
