Surrendered to Carson Animal Shelter on September 24, Roxy is heartbroken; she won't even look up from her kennel when a volunteer calls her name. Her description includes the following:

"My former family who owned me for more than five years had to give me up because they thought I had gotten too old. But they said that I spend most of my time outdoors, but it's not ideal. I do not show interest in small children. I have begun house training, but I still need some work. I seem to get along well with dogs."
