About Roxie
At just 8 weeks old, Roxie became a cherished addition to our family. It wasn't until 8 months later, following the loss of my mother in 2022, we discovered Roxie's extraordinary qualities. Roxie displayed an extraordinary level of emotional intelligence that seemed almost uncanny for such a young pup. She had an innate ability to sense our sadness and offer unconditional comfort and support, providing solace that words alone could not express. It was as if she understood our pain and was determined to alleviate it with her unwavering love and companionship. I recognized the potential in Roxie's skillset. It became evident that her natural talent for providing emotional support could be harnessed to benefit others. The idea of sharing her abilities with families and individuals in need of therapy and emotional healing emerged, and a new journey began. While Roxie will forever hold a special place in our family, we realized that her puppies could carry on her legacy and touch even more lives. We made the decision to embark on a carefully planned breeding program. The goal is to share the love and comfort she has bestowed on us. Our vision is to connect Roxie's puppies with families and homes where their therapeutic qualities can make a profound impact, allowing others to experience the unconditional love and support Roxie has shown us.
