About Roxy

Roxy is a delightful Chihuahua/Pit Bull mix puppy, just 2 months old. She came from a local litter of 9, rescued from a backyard where they lived outdoors. Now, she’s getting ready to find her forever home where she can thrive. In her foster home, Roxy is learning to adjust to the indoor lifestyle. She's not housebroken yet but is making progress with her training. While she’s figuring out leash walking and adapting to crate life, she does tend to howl a bit when left alone. This playful pup brings lots of joy with her energetic personality. Roxy loves crinkle toys and anything that squeaks. She's social and outgoing, always eager to make new friends. Belly rubs are her favorite, and she shows her appreciation with her enchanting puppy howl. Given her high energy, an active owner would be perfect for her. Roxy is up to date on vaccinations and eligible for a low-cost spay through a local program after adoption. If you think Roxy could be the companion you're looking for, don’t hesitate to apply.
