About ROX

Rox, refuge since 1934 days My name is Rox, beautiful and great cross Cane Corso very endearing arrived at the shelter at 3 months after being found abandoned in the street probably because of my concern for mobility. At the shelter, they discovered that the malformation I had on my legs that prevented me from moving normally was due to a neurological syndrome that consisted of compressing my spinal cord. After a suitable long treatment and aquatic kine, I walk almost normally today, I have no more treatment and I enjoy more and more walks that should not be too long. With all my misfortunes and the fact that I have only known the refuge, I am quite fearful of the unknown and distrustful of the human and my congeners; But when I know it, I get very hugging and I love getting pampered. Besides, I'm very calm. On the other hand, I can't stand the heat and because of my old neurological worries, the long periods in the sun are not recommended. For several months, I've been convinced that walking outside the shelter can be fun with volunteers I trust, allowing me to walk better and more confident; And yes, that's right, I like it! I'm still young so I still have a lot to discover, little by little. Unfortunately I have never known the sweetness and warmth of a home, so I eagerly wait for my future masters who will have the heart and time to take care of me with all their sweetness and benevolence to finally be happy; I'll do it for you! You'll understand, I'm a good, fat nanny full of motivation.

Rox, au refuge depuis 1934 jours Je m’appelle Rox, beau et grand croisé Cane Corso très attachant arrivé à 3 mois au refuge après avoir été trouvé abandonné dans la rue sûrement à cause de mon souci de mobilité. Au refuge, ils ont découvert que la malformation que j’avais aux pattes m’empêchant de me mouvoir normalement, était dûe à un syndrome neurologique qui consistait à comprimer ma moelle épinière. Après un long traitement adapté et de la kiné aquatique, je marche aujourd’hui presque normalement, je n’ai plus de traitement et j’apprécie de plus en plus les balades qui ne doivent pas être trop longues. Avec tous mes malheurs et le fait que je n’ai connu que le refuge, je suis assez craintif de l’inconnu et méfiant envers l’humain et mes congénères ; mais quand je connais, je deviens très câlin et j’adore me faire papouiller. De plus, je suis très calme. Par contre je supporte mal la chaleur et du fait de mes anciens soucis neurologiques, les longues périodes au soleil me sont déconseillées. Depuis plusieurs mois, je me suis laissé convaincre que les balades à l’extérieur du refuge pouvaient être sympas avec les bénévoles en qui j’ai confiance, ce qui me permet de marcher de mieux en mieux et de gagner en confiance ; et oui, c’est vrai, j’aime bien ! Je suis encore jeune donc j’ai encore plein de choses à découvrir, petit à petit. Je n’ai malheureusement jamais connu la douceur et la chaleur d’un foyer, j’attends donc impatiemment mes futurs maîtres qui auront le cœur et le temps de s’occuper de moi avec toute leur douceur et leur bienveillance pour enfin être heureux ; je vous le rendrai bien ! Vous l’aurez compris, je suis un gentil gros nounours plein de motivation.
