About Roxxie
💤 Lazy, Sweet, and Affectionate: Roxxie is a certified couch potato who will happily nap while staying close to her people. She’s a classic Velcro dog, happiest when she can keep you in sight.
🤍 A Gentle Soul: Sensitive and soft-hearted, Roxxie craves a calm environment. She doesn’t respond well to raised voices or stern corrections. Gentle guidance, patience, and love are the keys to her heart.
🚗 Car Ride Enthusiast: Car rides are a special treat for Roxxie, especially if someone helps her into the car (she likes to feel pampered!).
☀️ Sunbather Extraordinaire: There’s nothing Roxxie loves more than lounging in the sun. A yard where she can bask peacefully would be a dream come true for her.
Her Ideal Family
Roxxie would thrive with a family that:
-
Has Tweens or Teens: Older kids who understand her sensitivity and respect her boundaries would be perfect.
-
Understands the Breed: Experience with Great Danes or other large breeds is ideal to ensure her needs are met.
-
Offers a Calm Environment: A peaceful home with minimal yelling or tension will help Roxxie feel safe and loved.
What She’s Working On
-
Leash Training: Roxxie pulls a bit but is eager to learn with gentle corrections.
-
Potty Training: While she’s mostly house-trained, she still has occasional accidents.
-
Confidence Building: Loud noises, sudden movements, and stern voices make Roxxie nervous. She needs a family that will help her build trust and feel secure.
Other Notes
-
Dog-Friendly: Roxxie enjoys the company of other large dogs and will occasionally play chase, though she’s more of a relaxer than a runner.
-
Toys & Bones: She’s not big on toys yet but loves chewing on bones and might discover the joy of play in her forever home.
-
Crate Trained: Roxxie is crate trained but may whine when left alone.
