About Roxie

Meet Roxie! This sweet Border Collie/Shepherd mix is eager to find her forever home. At around 2 years old, Roxie can be a bit shy at first, but with patience, she'll reveal her loving and loyal nature. Roxie is spayed and has a short, tricolored coat that adds to her charm. She thrives best as the only pet in the house, so she’ll appreciate a calm environment where she feels secure. Even though she has some anxiety, which is helped by daily medication, she knows her basic commands and is house trained. This lovely girl is not suited for homes with small children and may show some curiosity — or a chase instinct — towards cats, although she's never hurt one. She can also be food protective around other dogs and prefers not to be kennelled. If you can provide the quiet home she deserves, Roxie will be a loyal companion for years to come. Roxie is currently in Red Lodge, MT. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
