About Roxy Baby
Roxy Baby is the perfect blend of athletic Boxer energy and sweet companion. At three years old, she has outgrown the hectic puppy phase but still has plenty of stamina for long walks, backyard games of fetch, or weekend hikes. When playtime is over, she loves nothing more than curling up next to her favorite humans for some well-deserved belly rubs.
Because Roxy Baby's history with children and felines is currently unknown, a home that can manage slow, managed introductions would be best. If you have kids or other pets, a meet-and-greet will be an important step to ensure everyone gets along. She would thrive with an active individual or family who can give her the exercise, training, and love she deserves.
Medical Note: This dog is being treated/has been treated for heartworm disease. Untreated heartworm disease can cause lasting damage to the heart, lungs and arteries, and can affect the dog’s health and quality of life even after the parasites are gone, possibly presenting as medical complications and/or new conditions in the future. Whenever possible, SOSARL advocates for following the American Heartworm Society guidelines for heartworm disease treatment as the safest and most effective methods; the active portion of this treatment protocol can take up to four months to complete. Once treatment is completed and the dog tests negative for microfilaria, the dog will be cleared to resume normal activity and will be ready to travel north and be placed into an adoptive home. This dog showed no symptoms of heartworm disease before or during treatment, and is expected to complete treatment with no complications. Please ask your Adoption Counselor for the specific treatment protocol used for and current status of this dog. Please check with your vet if you have any questions or concerns about this medical history.
An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.

Additional info you should know - For most of our dogs, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our dogs as an individual and do our best to describe and place them based on personality not breed label. Some dogs may not yet be in New England, nor ready for immediate adoption. There may be additional vetting, quarantine, waiting periods and/or fees depending upon your state of residence. If you have questions or concerns on any of this, you can discuss this with your Adoption Counselor.
