Roxanne

Why choose me?<br/>Update from Roxy's temporary foster: Surely SOMEONE out there has a heart for senior pibbles and won't mind the fact that Roxy is a little rough around the edges. She's 10 years old, has cauliflower ear, a saggy belly likely from having many litters, thickened skin on her legs and paws likely from living much of her life on a hard surface or in a kennel, and a scattering of small lumps and bumps (as most seniors have).<br/>But behaviorally? She's a DREAM.<br/>I first met her at the Farmers Market and immediately fell in love. She's VERY my type. A thick squatty couch potato pittie who loves everyone and everything. Needless to say, I was thrilled to find out that I could babysit her while her foster is out of town.<br/>Things I know about Roxy:<br/>Great with kids and other dogs<br/>House trained<br/>Loves walks and car rides<br/>ZERO jumping, barking, or chewing<br/>Crate trained, but can be left out unattended<br/>Knows sit and takes treats gently<br/>She's SO EASY. So perfect. 1000/10.<br/>Please help share so that this girl can live out the rest of her days in a loving home. All she wants is to lay on a dog bed (or in your lap if you'll let her).<br/>From her Doggie Day Out volunteer : "Roxy is huge sweetheart and senior who just wants to be loved on. She really enjoys car rides and loved having a short nap on the bed at my house. She minds personal space, loves people, and was also keen to go for a walk with me. She's just so chill - it was evident that all she wanted was some quiet time out of the shelter. She's definitely potty trained - she only went outside. She loved meeting my roommates and she showed us that she knows how to sit! I can't wait to take her out again :)"<br/><br/><br/>Roxanne is a mild-mannered girl who's all sweetness. She looks like she's had several litters in her life, and I bet she was the best mama. All she wants now is to be loved on and given treats. She sits and waits patiently for her treats and then takes them gently. She liked being close and soaked up every bit of attention I gave her. Roxanne is 10 years old. Her years of raising pups are behind her, and she needs to be the one who's cared for and loved through her remaining golden years.<br/><br/>You can read more about this dog and check out additional photos here: https://www.accgov.com/9482/Dogs<br/><br/>The adoption fees, shelter schedule, a description of the rescue and adoption process, and a list of included vetting can be found at https://athenspets.net/adoption-rescue-process.<br/><br/>This dog is available for adoption through Athens-Clarke County Animal Services, located at 125 Buddy Christian Way, Athens, GA.
