About Roxy

Roxy is a stunning American Pit Bull Terrier with a big personality and an even bigger heart. Found roaming in Bridgeport, she was brought to Animal Control by a kind Samaritan. When no one came forward to claim her, we decided to bring her into our care and find her a loving home. This spirited girl is ready to leave her stray days behind and start living her very best life. Roxy is curious about everything around her and loves to explore the world through her nose. While she’s still working on her leash manners, Roxy will thrive with a patient adopter who can provide guidance and training to help her become the ideal walking companion. She's full of energy and excitement, eager for new adventures. Roxy will be available for adoption once she has been spayed. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
