When we brought her home one of the breeders requirements was that she travel in a crate, which we dutifully obliged. But she was six years old not a puppy so after arriving home I folded the crate up and it is stored in the attic. Roxy has never had an accident and lets us know when the need to go out to the garden is necessary. She enjoys a good walk, has never missed a meal, lets us know when there is something afoot but never barks just to be heard.
During Covid and MeMa's battle with cancer she has adapted well to our quarantined life. She is so in-tuned with MeMa and recognizes when MeMa needs some extra snuggle time. The neighbors have all fallen in love with her sweet nature.
When she first arrived Roxy would watch out the front window but never bark, she would watch goings on but remain silent. After a few months she decided that the neighborhood was part of her domain. Besides a shared hatred for squirrels she has a big hatred for the UPS delivery vehicles. Both receive a sound scolding until out of her sight.

When bedtime approached Roxy is the first one ready to call it a day.
When we take too long getting ready for bed Roxy will attempt to speed things up by pulling down the bedding.
She's a sweet little girl, and most definitely a well-loved family member.
ReplyDeleteWhat a joy !
Hope Me-Ma is doing well and making progress.
Stay safe,
Jo
She is the one good thing that came out of 2020
DeleteI'm so happy Roxy found you to go to.
ReplyDeleteShe has brought us love and joy ten fold.
DeleteRoxy looks and sounds like the perfect pet, so cute. As a Brit in Tennessee says I hope Me-Ma is doing well and both of you keep safe.
ReplyDeleteShe is quite the perfect pet. MeMa is doing very well. They just performed a needle biopsy on some microscopic spots discovered on her lymph nodes discovered on her last CT scan. But she is feeling very good.
DeleteRoxy hit the jackpot with you and Mema, or vice versa. Lucky all around.
ReplyDeleteLucky all round is correct.
DeleteShe looks so lovely. These are the first two years of my life that I do not have a dog and I miss it very much.
ReplyDeleteWe went two years without as well. Roxy was six years old when we adopted her. There are so many dogs out there needing good homes.
ReplyDeleteRoxy is definitely a treasure. I'm glad you have her.
ReplyDeleteBe safe and God bless.
What a gem Roxy is, and how wonderful that she found her way to you and MeMa, the most perfect home. I know she is making a difference and is the perfect distraction and fun on the days when you need it most!
ReplyDeleteAnd, continued prayers for healing for MeMa and ones for strength and continued comfort for you both. ❤
