Pet of the Week, Roxy!

This is Roxy. She has been with ARF since she was a wee pup and is the last of her litter to get adopted. Again, not really sure why. She is about 7 months old and all legs!

Roxy is a really sweet pup and pretty laid back. She does like to take a little time to check out a situation with other dogs around, but usually gets right into things a loves to run and play.


She is crate trained, house trained, knows how to sit, lay down and is working on high five, her recall is also very good for a young pup. She is very well behaved in the house and doesn't get into any trouble. She is occupied with a bison bone, very easily.


Roxy is very affectionate and loves to snuggle and give kisses. Sometimes when she meets new people, she gets a little bit excited and will try to jump. Since she is such a tall girl, this can be frightening for some. However, her foster home is working on this with her and is really normal 7-month-old puppy behaviour. Some basic obedience classes at dogma or Sit Happens! once she's adopted would likely do wonders for this!

Roxy is currently spending some time in a home with an 11 year old girl and she follows her around and loves spending time with her. Roxy would likely do well in a home of any sort, though she is used to always having other dogs in the home, she might prefer that her forever home has another dog, but that isn't a deal breaker if she finds the perfect home who will continue to let her socialize with other dogs and people. She even gets on well with small dogs!
