She wasn’t interested in toys. Roxy was very easygoing and relaxed. She was easy to return to her kennel.

08-JUL-25 - Note - Adopter mentioned that Roxy is low energy and selective with people usually not showing much interest. Roxy did have an accident in the home but was just very low energy. Adopter mentioned that she showed little interest in toys and food._ARR

30-JUN-25 - Interact - 6/28/25 Per volunteer: Roxy was easy to leash and she walked with just a mild pull, ignoring other dogs along the way. She solicited for lots of pets from head to tail from both volunteers. Roxy is treat motivated and knows how to sit for and accept treats gently. She wasn't interested in playing with any of the toys this afternoon. For the most part of the visit, Roxy stayed close by both volunteers seeking lots of attention and pets. Roxy was easy to return to and unleash in her kennel.

30-APR-25 - Medical - HEARTWORM POSITIVE (TEMPLATE) What is the medical issue? This dog was diagnosed with Heartworm disease at the shelter. Heartworm disease is caused by large worms that live in the heart, lungs, and blood vessels, causing lung disease, heart failure, and other organ damage. What has PRC done so far? This dog has begun treatment for this disease. A 30 day course of doxycycline will be completed, followed by a 30 day 'rest' period. If this dog has not completed meds prior to adoption, you should receive a prescription to fill at a pharmacy to obtain remaining doses. Two months after diagnosis, if healthy enough for treatment as determined by PRC veterinarians, your dog can receive injections to kill adult heartworms at the PRC. This injection is a medication called "Diroban" which is injected into the large muscles of the back. Two injections are given 24 hours apart, per FDA guidelines. This protocol kills about 90% of heartworms and is recommended for stage 1 and 2 heartworm disease. Alternatively, adopters can elect to pursue heartworm treatment with their veterinarian. Your veterinarian may recommend additional diagnostics prior to treatment, or may recommend a slightly different protocol. What can the adopter expect? This dog should receive heartworm prevention monthly year-round for the rest of the its life to prevent another infection. Next month's dose of prevention will be dispensed; you must follow up with your vet for continued prevention. Your pet should be retested 6 months after treatment for heartworm disease, and then yearly thereafter. Your vet may recommend additional diagnostics or treatments. All further care is the responsibility of the adopter. Comments: Heartworm treatment is not benign. Some pets may have adverse reactions to heartworm treatment, including swelling at the injection site, pain, and respiratory issues. In rare cases the dying worms in the bloodstream might fall apart and cause a thrombus (blockage of a blood vessel). If this happens your pet might have respiratory distress and could die. Any activities that cause panting or elevated heart rate can increase the risk of a thrombus. It is critical that your pet is crate rested for 6 weeks following treatment and is only allowed to go outside for short periods of time on a leash to urinate/defecate. A medical staff member will go over any questions you may have at discharge.

30-APR-25 - Note - 04/30/25 13:35 Allowed all handling and vaccines. Friendly with ACO's and Staff. Roxy smelled at the treats but did not take any. She did okay with the other dog in the room. After being in the room for a few minutes, she loosened up and slightly walked towards staff.
