Roxy1 Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Helloo All- and Happy Holidays- Just came across this site,(glad I did) My name is George and just rescued a 1 year old female that had been taken by animal control for the third (and final) time for abuse from the previous owner. They had to keep her for a month just to get her into condition to adopt out. My wife and I were the 1st to see her on the 1st day she was available for adoption. Sooo glad we were there. We had just put our previous rescue to sleep (the day before) after 12 years and it was a sudden thing. She was not a sibe, but was the absolute best family/companion dog anyone could have. So here comes Roxy, and after the terrible start in life she had, she still has the disposition of a dog that wants nothing but to love and please. She has the sweetest disposition. Anyway- I look forward to reading, seeing, getting advice etc. My wife and I have fallen in love with her already and have done quite a bit of research on huskies, and my wife will join the site on her computer also. We love reading all your stories and seeing the pics. I'll get roxy's posted too. Thanks for the site- George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rosemary Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 Hi George, welcome to the Forum. Thank you so much for giving Roxy a good and loving home, she looks so comfortable on her pillow It always amazes me that people can mistreat, and abuse, such wonderful animals. They are not the easiest of breeds to have, but with a bit of research, which is necessary in order to understand them, they are the most amazing animals to share your home with. Looking forward to seeing you around the forum. Feel free to ask any questions you may have, there is always someone around to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxy1 Posted December 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 welcome to the forum, glad to see your not spoiling Roxy. LMAO - She had just came home - we picked her up from the pounds vet after being spade 1st. Soooo- still doped up - hurtin and a house she'd never seen, my wife thought she'd make her comfy. Trust me- she won't get the blanket ever again- just the bed. and toys and treats - but thats all Oh and carrots and love But nothing else- except walks to park and Petsmart and------------------------------------ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 Yeah, yeah, yeah, we hear you My Micah loves her blanket and drags it around with her and sleeps next to it. She would definitely steal Roxy's lovely blanket given half the chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
