Roxie's Rescue is based in Leicestershire, Warwickshire & surrounding areas.

We are a volunteer run rescue and are foster home based.

The main aim of Roxie's Rescue is to help coordinate foster care for animals that are looking for a home as this prevents them having to stay in kennels or catteries which can sometimes be very stressful for them. Whilst in foster care, their behaviour and temperament can be assessed so their chances of finding a suitable home and compatible family are maximised.

Roxies Rescue is run entirely by volunteers, this ensures every available penny can go towards helping an animal in need. We also have an amazing network of regular supporters, without whom our work would be even tougher to carry out so we are eternally grateful to them!

​

Welcome aboard and we look forward to your support!

Thank you, from everyone at Roxie’s Rescue

Roxies Rescue began in January 2012; when Emma (the founder), purchased a Rottweiler puppy whom she named Roxie. Unbeknown to Emma, Roxie had come from a backyard breeder and required emergency veterinary treatment to save her life. With Roxie being so small and stuck in the vets on a drip, Emma used Facebook to update her friends on Roxie's progress. Before long little Roxie had such a following on Facebook that Emma created her own page, "Roxies Rescue"! Lots of well-wishers, followers, and rescue organisations joined and Emma soon became aware many other animals around the county were also in need of help. Slowly but surely Roxies Rescue grew in to a well established and respected animal rescue and still continues to grow and gather momentum today.



The good news is little Roxie recovered well from her traumatic start in life, and now not so little she still lives happily with Emma and her family.



Due to family commitments, Emma left Roxie's. But Roxie's Rescue continues its mission, now in the hands of Kate Olgeirsson, supported by a team of a fantastic and committed voluneteer admin team.
