About Roxie in TN

Roxie in TN is a lively 3-year-old Dachshund with a striking long black and tan coat. Currently at a healthy 15.8 lbs, she’s got a bit of weight to lose, but she's making great progress in her foster home. Roxie relishes time outdoors, where she plays joyfully in a fenced yard, chasing squirrels and keeping an eye out for deer. Although she can be shy initially, once she warms up, she becomes a loyal companion. This affectionate girl is great with both male and female dogs, making her adaptable in a multi-pet household. But she’s not suited for homes with cats or small children. Ideally, Roxie would thrive with another small, young dog and someone who can be around more often, as she appreciates having company. As she continues to lose weight, Roxie benefits from a consistent routine and plenty of outdoor time. If you’re prepared to provide a loving, safe environment, she’s ready to bring joy into your life.
