When the story starts, we meet Roxy, a small, fluffy grey pup with shiny amber eyes. Life has not been easy for her. She is cold, hungry, and scared of the big world around her.

At the shelter, Roxy meets other dogs. Some are fun and friendly, like Max, a bouncy brown dog who always makes her laugh.

At first, he keeps his distance, but Roxy’s gentle kindness slowly helps him learn to trust again.

Hello! My name is Roxy and I’m a very happy rescue pup🐾
Life didn’t start very easily for me, but thanks to love patience and lots of cuddles, I’ve found my forever family. I love going on adventures, we go to the beach every day, but my favourite sniff areas are in the dunes and the trees where the rabbits and squirrels live. My favourite humans take me on their UK holidays too, and when we eat out, somehow my food is often put on their plates, so I just wait patiently, and look deep into their eyes and then they give it to me. They love me and my puppy eyes! I was rescued when life was really hard, and together with my humans, we have learned that love, trust and a little fun can turn tricky beginnings into the best adventures ever!
