Roxy – 1 year old Female

Chihuahua Β· Female

🐾 Meet Roxy! 🐾 Hi everyone, I’m Roxy, a 1-year-7-month-old Chihuahua cross looking for my forever home! ❀️ I’m a big bundle of energy packed into a little body! I’m a very giddy girl who loves having fun, being busy and, of course, getting lots of attention from my people. πŸ₯° I’d love an active home with a family who can keep up with me and give me plenty of exercise, playtime and enrichment. I’m still a young girl with lots to learn, so I’ll need someone who can give me patience, guidance and positive training to help me become the best version of myself. The kennel team are still getting to know me, but I could potentially live with another dog, they’ll know more once I’ve had some more dog meets and will update my profile when they do. The team are currently unsure whether I could live with cats. As I’m a very giddy and energetic girl, the team recommend a home with children aged 16 and over. I’ve got bags of personality, lots of energy and plenty of love to give. If you’re looking for a fun-loving little companion who will keep you on your toes, I could be the girl for you! ❀️ Love, Roxy x 🐾

About Roxy – 1 year old Female

What life with Roxy – 1 year old Female looks like

Roxy – 1 year old Female is a large adult chihuahua dog waiting at Rain Rescue in United Kingdom.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. A larger dog like this one needs daily off-leash time when possible β€” a fenced yard or regular access to safe walking trails. Plan a "decompression fortnight" β€” quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures β€” to let them settle.

πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Roxy – 1 year old Female, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Roxy – 1 year old Female?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Rain Rescue handles screening and the adoption contract directly β€” TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Roxy – 1 year old Female on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Roxy – 1 year old Female if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad β€” Rain Rescue will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Roxy – 1 year old Female already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported β€” ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Roxy – 1 year old Female isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work β€” that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Rain Rescue early rather than rehoming privately; they know Roxy – 1 year old Female and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect β€” names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
