Roxie

Breed: Miniature Pinscher/Manchester?
Gender: Female, spayed
DOB: 8-22-22
Weight: ~7 pounds
Microchipped
Adoption Fee: $375

They say it's important to be smarter than your dog and, well, Roxie has definitely put her foster family to the test! She can open doors, boxes, and containers. She can climb things and get over, through, and under things in the home that were unexpected. She is an amazingly agile dog!

When Roxie isn't running through the house with her foster brothers and sisters playing a wild game of chase, she sits and watches. She observes her fur family and human foster family with intelligent eyes. She plans ahead. But as long as there is a lap or shoulder to rest upon, she will crash with her buddies and hang out in a puppy pile up!

When Roxie initially came to us, she had a double break in her front leg. It took a couple months to resolve the break. It has now healed beautifully and she has normal use of the leg- something two vets had been uncertain would happen!

She is a fun dog, an energetic dog and is ready to learn ANYTHING! She is highly intelligent and needs an active, intelligent family to continue her education, work on her self control, and help her channel her energy into healthy activities! She would be a great agility candidate and we have a lot of wonderful trainers in this area that can help you teach her! She would be great for search and rescue training, as she has an excellent nose, drive, and is small enough to go places larger dogs can't go!

Roxy can climb, jump, and get through openings in gates and fences. She cannot get through a privacy fence. Sadly, because she is so small and agile, we must require her adoptive home have a secure privacy fenced yard.
