Roxy Is a Rocker

Roxy is a Boxer/Staffordshire Terrier mix and she rocks. She came to the shelter on April 24th as an owner surrender. She has been spayed and she has a great personality. Roxy has a beautiful brindle coat and a loving heart and a desire to please everyone she meets. She is about two years old, but she still has the heart of a big puppy. She loves to be around people and have the opportunity to walk and explore her world. Come see her this holiday weekend and consider giving her the forever home that she deserves. Roxy is a sweet dog who deserves a second chance at life.

If you’re interested in adopting Roxy or any of the other dogs or cats, please visit the Douglas County Animal Shelter located at 1755 County Services Road (off Cedar Mountain Road). The shelter is open Tuesday through Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Sunday from 2 to 5 p.m. The shelter is closed to the public on Monday, but open to rescue organizations on Mondays.

Pet listings are updated frequently, however, animals featured may be adopted and that after all is the goal. If the pet you are interested in has been adopted, please consider giving another of the many available pets an opportunity to be your forever friend and allow them to show you just how special they each are when they are given a chance.

Adoption fees for dogs and cats is $25 and there is a $10 micro chip fee. $35 for the opportunity to make a friend for life and the opportunity to give a furkid a forever home is a small price to pay. All dogs presently receive intake inoculations for kennel cough, parvo and distemper (cats receive distemper) and all pets adopted from the shelter are required to have their rabies shots and be spayed or neutered within thirty days of adoption, unless they are kittens or puppies. The Douglas County Animal Shelter phone: 770-942-5961. If the line is busy, please keep trying as there is often limited staff to answer calls. However, messages left will be returned as time permits.
