About Roxie in TN

Meet Roxie, a lovable Dachshund currently residing in Seymour, TN. At just 3 years old, Roxie has a delightful personality that shines once she warms up to you. She enjoys the outdoors, where she happily runs around the fenced yard and merrily chases after squirrels and birds. Roxie has established a close bond with her canine foster siblings and thrives in their company. While she has a bit of a shy side at first, once she trusts you, she becomes a loyal companion who follows you everywhere. Roxie has previously been exposed to table scraps, making her a bit picky with dog food; however, she’s making strides in her foster home. Currently, she is working towards losing a little weight, and with your help, she could reach her ideal size. To ensure her happiness, Roxie needs a home with a fenced yard, another young small dog, and ideally someone who can be around more often than not. Unfortunately, she does not get along with cats, and a quieter, stable environment with older kids (12+ years) would be best for her. If you believe you can meet her needs and provide the love she deserves, we encourage you to apply for her adoption. Roxie is ready to become the perfect addition to a loving home. Click apply to start the adoption process.
