About Roxy
All About Me and My Unique Personality:
Hello, I'm Roxy. Although I can be a little timid and nervous when I first meet new humans, I am super sweet and love cuddles, being carried everywhere, belly rubs and snuggling up on the lounge. My interaction with humans has been quite low throughout my life so I need a patient and quiet person willing to build trust with me for me to come out of my shell. I love my food and get very excited for meal times and any time I see my favourite person I will bounce around with excitement and wag my tail. I love napping and the sunshine.
My Ideal Home:
My ideal home would be with a single person or older couple with no children. As I have had a difficult life so far, I am quite timid and need somewhere quiet and comfortable to laze about for cuddles. I love spending time with my humans so someone who is home and will let me inside with them would be perfect. I am the perfect companion pet, just want to be by your side and follow you around the house. Because of my background, I enjoy finding quiet and dark spots to rest when I'm feeling overwhelmed. So sometimes I will take myself away for a rest next to the lounge or under a table where I feel safe.
What is Known About My Background:
I was sadly rescued from a puppy farm and spent quite a few weeks in the pound before coming to live at my foster home. I was used for breeding and was in atrocious conditions when I came into the pound. I had hookworm and was not very well cared for at all. I didn't have much interaction with humans throughout my life, which is why it takes me a little bit of time to build trust.
How Do I Interact with Kids, Dogs, Cats and Other Pets:
It is unknown how I interact with kids, however because of my timid nature, it can be assumed that small children would overwhelm me. I am great with other dogs, but do like my own space and doing my own thing. I have lived with other dogs throughout my life at the puppy farm and currently live with two cats at my foster home. I am not bothered by the cats and they tend to leave me alone.
Medical notes
Roxy has recently had hookworm therefore will require 2 weekly worming tablets until 19/12/22. On this date she will need a faecal sample tested by a vet (voucher can be provided if adopted prior to this date) to ensure the hookworm has gone.
