Roxie German Shepherd Dog Mix Palatine, IL

Calling all German Shepherd lovers! Meet beautiful Roxie. This mostly blonde girl is a gentle, relaxed, slightly shy cuddle-bug. At 6 years old, she’s low energy and content to sit (inside or outside) and watch the world go by.

Roxie is housebroken and so well-behaved that she doesn’t need a crate. She doesn’t chew inappropriately and only barks occasionally. Good on leash and in the car, this laid back girl is easy to handle. She doesn’t know a lot of commands but that’s probably primarily due to lack of motivation — she’s so mellow!

Roxie’s loves: being outside, investigating smells, chicken, belly rubs, stuffed toys, and — above all — affection. She’s not fond of loud noises, stairs, or of other dogs taking her toys. Aside from that, she gets along well with other dogs. Because of this occasional resource guarding, she would do best as an only dog or with someone familiar with the breed.
