We were lucky enough to adopt this sweetheart from the Humane Society today! She is a 6 year old German Shepherd mix. And she fits right in! We are still settling into our routine and I'm trying really hard to not have anxiety over every little thing. I first looked at Roxie a few weeks ago on their website. We met her on Saturday at Petsmart during their adoption day. We didn't want to make a huge decision like that right away so we thought about it over night. She had been at the shelter for a month. No one adopted her all day Saturday or Sunday. We decided if she was still available on Monday it was meant to be.
We brought her home today and she has been great. Sweet and patient with the kids and follows me around like a little puppy dog. Or a big puppy dog.
The people who overlooked her because she is an older dog really missed out. She is housebroken, knows her basic commands and doesn't require running a marathon every day to get her energy out. She's a sweetheart!

She is adorable! We bought our dog at the Humane Society also. She was two(ish) and was housebroken and out of puppy stage. It made it so much easier. Congratulations. She will be so much fun and looks so happy!!!
Can't wait to meet Roxie...I bet Jackson is in DOG HEAVEN.
How fun!
How fun! I think I would like the older dogs too!
