Roxy is a 4-year-old Pomeranian-Husky mix with a huge personality, endless energy, and enough enthusiasm to power a small city. This playful girl is always ready for action, whether that means walks, playtime, adventures, or simply supervising everything happening around her. She is incredibly friendly, full of life, and absolutely loves being part of the fun.
Roxy is housetrained, crate trained, and walks very well on leash, though her excitement for the world can sometimes show in a little extra enthusiasm on walks. She knows “sit” and “stay” and enjoys being active and engaged with her people. She is friendly with strangers and does well with children, but because of her energy she might be better suited for a home with older kids who can handle that. Her foster describes her as having “ever ready batteries,” and it truly fits. She also does wonderfully meeting dogs on walks, often greeting them politely and then enthusiastically “hugging” them once she feels comfortable.
Roxy is a smart and confident dog who likes to keep tabs on everything and occasionally appoints herself head of household. She responds well to structure and reminders that her humans are actually in charge. She can also be a bit of a digger and escape artist, seemingly convinced there may be buried treasure just outside the fence line, so a secure fenced yard and supervised outdoor time are important. Storms and thunder are not her favourite, and during bad weather she may retreat under the bed until the scary skies pass.
Roxy would thrive in an active home that can match her energy and continue giving her structure, exercise, and positive reinforcement. She would love a family who enjoys walks, outdoor time, and having a fun, spirited companion by their side. In return, Roxy will bring laughter, adventure, loyalty, and nonstop personality into her forever home.
