Roxy Anne NEEDS Sponsors Roxy Anne says, "Us older dogs need families too!" I came to Smiling Dog Farms a few years ago. My family wasn't able to keep me any more. They called around to a lot of rescues, but everyone was filled up and no one had room for me. My family didn't want to send me to the dog pound because I have medical issues and because I am older ... and well, I guess you can figure out what would have happened to me there!   Then they called Smiling Dog Farms to ask if I could live at the farm. And Ricky and Jay said, "yes"! Ricky says my medical issue is not that big a deal. Sometimes, I will get mange. It's not the kind that other dogs can catch. It's the kind that hides out inside me, and periodically surfaces. When I get mange, it is easy to see it coming  And Ricky just puts sulphur paste on my skin. And sometimes I get low doses of Ivermectin for a while, too. But that is all there is to it. It is an easy treatment.   Ricky and Jay say that I have such a great personality, people will not mind treating my mange, if it comes back. Sometimes I wonder, though. I have been waiting here a really long time, and no one has adopted me yet. Jay says that the right person or family will come along. It will be someone who wants a quiet, older companion ... a dog to lay on the sofa and watch TV with them. Someone who appreciates a dog who is loyal and loving, like me. I’m not very big, only about 40-45 pounds. I am just sort of a plain-jane black and tan. But Ricky and Jay say I am beautiful... outside and inside! I am a good watch-dog, too. If someone comes around I don't know, I will bark to let you know! If you know someone who wants a loyal, loving girl like me, just contact Jay at hellerich@aol.com and he’ll introduce us.
