Roxanne

Meet Roxanne (aka Roxie, aka baby girl)!<br/><br/>Roxanne is a 2 year-old, 50 lb mixed breed, possibly Hound, Black Mouth Cur, Shepherd, and we have had several other guesses...all we know for sure is that she is full of kisses and snuggles. She’s gentle, a little reserved at first, but once she feels safe with you, she warms up. She’s incredibly affectionate and full of life. You can tell by the small rip in her ear that she hasn’t had the easiest life - but she’s a survivor, somehow still wants to love, and doesn’t have a mean bone in her body.<br/><br/>Roxanne is an independent dog and can play by herself, but she also gets along great and is submissive with all dogs. She would love you that much more if you gave her a squeaky toy (the squeakier the better). <br/><br/>Roxanne is potty trained and will let you know when she needs to go outside. She also is super smart and will be a breeze to train with the right time and dedication, as she learned “down” in about 10 minutes. Although she loves her crate to sleep in, we are still working on closing the crate door for longer periods of time. She’s doing great on leash walks—though she may need some positive words of encouragement to help her be brave and distract her from wanting to go back home. <br/><br/>Roxanne eats two meals a day, has a standard bathroom schedule, enjoys treats (read: cheese), and thrives on affection and routine.<br/><br/>Roxanne would do best in a home that offers room to run around with her squeaky toys, gentle guidance, and plenty of love. <br/><br/>If you’re looking for a sweet and goofy girl who’s growing more confident every day, Roxanne could be the perfect fit.<br/><br/>Our standard adoption fee is $465. We offer a $15 discount for adopters who pay by cash or check, making the adoption fee $450.<br/><br/>The adoption fee includes spay/neuter when age appropriate at one of our participating veterinarians, age-appropriate core vaccinations, fecal test, deworming, current on flea and tick preventative, and microchip.<br/><br/>To ensure the best match for both our dogs and adopters, we require a fully completed adoption application, a phone interview, and a meet-and-greet with the entire household. Applications will not be reviewed unless fully completed. <br/><br/>Submitting an application does not guarantee adoption and does not obligate you to adopt; it simply allows us to begin the review process.<br/><br/>To request an application or for additional details, please email adopt@safehavendogsIL.org <br/><br/>Please note that the breeds and sizes posted in this biography are educated best guesses and are not guaranteed. <br/><br/>Safe Haven Dog Rescue reserves the right to approve or decline any adoption application based on the best interest of the dog.
