About Roxie in TN

Roxie is a delightful 3-year-old Dachshund currently finding her groove in her foster home in Shelbyville, TN. With her long black and tan coat, she exudes charm and personality. Roxie thrives outdoors, happily chasing squirrels and barking at deer in the woods. Although she's a bit shy initially, once she settles in, she'll be your loyal companion, following you everywhere around the house and yard. Roxie has demonstrated her friendly nature with other dogs, both male and female. However, she does not get along with cats, so a cat-free home is necessary. While she is house trained, she is still working on her social skills around young children and would do best with older kids, around 12 and up, who can respect her space. A fenced yard is a must, as she enjoys running and playing freely. If you're ready to meet her needs and help her achieve her ideal weight, Roxie is eager to find her forever home.
