oxy — Our Hidden Gem Meet Roxy, a breathtaking brindle beauty with a heart as big as her smile. Around 3 years old, this confident and charismatic girl came to us after being surrendered to a North Jersey shelter. Despite a difficult start, Roxy has proven to be resilient, joyful, and full of love—and we truly can’t understand why she’s still waiting. Roxy is one of our longest residents, and it’s time her story changes. She is a large, strong girl with a moderate energy level and a wonderful balance of playfulness and affection. Roxy loves running in the yard, playing fetch, and enjoying life, but she’s equally content curling up with her people once the fun is done. She forms deep, meaningful bonds and is incredibly loving and loyal to those she trusts—once she chooses you, you are her person. Roxy has successfully completed a Board and Train program and absolutely thrived—earning the nickname “teacher’s pet.” She’s eager to please, enjoys structure, and would flourish in a home that continues reinforcing her training and confidence. Roxy is dog-tolerant, and if there is already a pet in the home, a meet-and-greet would be required to ensure a good match. Because of her size and strength, she’s best suited for a home with older children. A fenced yard where she can stretch her legs and play would be a dream come true. Roxy is loving. She’s loyal. She’s fun. And she has so much to give. All she’s missing is someone willing to see past the length of her stay and recognize the incredible companion standing right in front of them. If you’re looking for a devoted best friend who will love you with her whole heart, Roxy is ready—and she’s been waiting. ***Update: Roxy has completed her professional training and was in a temporary foster home over the holiday weekend. She was amazing, so well-behaved, and so happy to be in a home. Sadly, she is now back at the kennel and is very sad and down. Please...this girl is a wonderful dog and we want so badly to help her find that lucky person or family to call her own. Please apply to adopt Roxy at bfdaaa. If your application is a possible match, a volunteer will get back to you shortly.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
