THIS SWEET FRIENDLY, LOVING, PERFECT GAL is GETTING BOOTED by the LANDLORD of her current Foster home so she URGENTLY NEEDS A FUREVER HOME!!

Roxie is a sweet 1.5 yr old female brindle shephard mix...she originally was brought to the shelter as a stray. Poor Roxie, she was sooo emaciated, the shelter staff thought she was a little reindeer when she was brought in (see top two photos)... a rescue group pulled her and placed her in a foster home that fattened her up and she blossomed into a happy go lucky lovable sweet princess of a dog. (see bottom two photos).

She's great with all people, big and small (kids over 7 yrs+) and all dogs big and small but she'd prefer to be your one and only... she is an extremely smart, loyal and lovable dog and will walk beside you off leash til the ends of the earth! Her only vice is that she does guard her food a bit because she was starved and most dogs that have been emaciated exhibit some food agression but her foster mom worked with her on this and she is getting much better.

Last but not least, she doesn't seem to mind cats, but will chase if the cat hisses or gets in her face... but she is such an obedient girl that she can be trained to leave the cat alone. Roxie just wants to please and she won't let you down!

The Rescue Group has no open fosters and is DESPARATE to find her a new home/foster home IMMEDIATELY.. she is a WONDERFUL GEM of a dog and will be your BEST FRIEND FOREVER!!! and a WONDERFUL companion to another dog....IF YOU CAN ADOPT/FOSTER ROXIE... PLS E-MAIL BACK OR CALL #212-533-0822 and leave your COnTACT INFO... TIME is of the ESSENCE!!
