ROXIE

 

Roxie is a one-year old intact greyhound mix female. She is in dire need of a home or even a foster home. Her owners have had to move into an apartment and are not allowed to have a dog over a certain weight. Roxie is probably  70 pounds. A veterinarian identified this girl as a Ridgeback so Rescue was asked to help this RR. However, she is obviously a Greyhound mix - possibly with lab - and is absolutely gorgeous. Roxie is NOT a Ridgeback mix. She will be a fabulous companion for someone. She loves other dogs, people and does well with children. She does NOT do well with cats. If you can help Roxie and stop her from going to the pound you will be well rewarded with unconditional love! 

It is that time of the year when people begin to think about going on vacation and rescues are often inundated with dogs during the summer season.

Please think about helping a dog in need by fostering a rescue dog, or one from your local shelter. The dogs give us such unconditional love and it is rewarding to give them something in return.

These are some of the dogs on Petfinder needing help. See if you can find them on petfinder and then contact the rescue group to help the dogs in those areas. These dogs are in different rescues and in different states.

The following dogs are needing new homes:

Sox - brindle, mixed breed, ridged male, about 7 years of age. He has had an eye removed due to trauma and gets along with dogs and cats and people.

He is possibly a mix of RR and CBR but no one knows for sure - he is about 55 pounds. He is a really nice dog and is in a foster home but needs his permanent one soon.

He is so well mannered his foster home says they would keep him if they did not have four dogs of their own

Sassy is a 7 year old mixed breed girl who needs a new home - Sassy is a big girl who has been in rescue for a long time now and would love to have her own family once again. She is possibly a lab/RR mix and is in a kennel.
