The Adams family — Blake, Melissa, and their three kids — share their home with two beloved pups that complete their family perfectly.
Roxy, a wise and loyal mix of Rottweiler, German Shepherd, Pitbull, and Lab, has been a part of their family for twelve years. She joined the family in 2013 when Blake and Melissa adopted her from the Fayette Humane Society. "Blake and I had our eye on her and checked in often once the application was submitted for adoption. He planned to surprise me with her while I was working but I was sick the day he had the visit with her foster parent so I was able to see her and meet her. She was extremely loving and warmed up to us quickly. I knew she was supposed to be part of our family!"
Roxy's name came from the couple's shared love for the beach. She also has nicknames that have been given over the years — the most notable one is "Boo Boo Kitty." She is most known for her human-like personality and incredible obedience. There is no place she would rather be than with her people enjoying belly rubs.
Remi is the newest addition to the Adams' family. She is a one-year-old Beagle with a heart of pure gold. Melissa grew up with Beagles and knew she wanted one of her own one day. When Melissa's parents were looking at puppies from a local breeder, there was only one little girl left. "I knew that it was meant to be! That was OUR Remi!" Melissa recalls. She quickly became Melissa's sidekick and has brought the Adams so much joy.
Remi is playful, affectionate, and full of energy! She is always up for a cuddle or her favorite game of fetch with her tennis ball.
The Adams family said what they love most about their dogs is the unconditional love they show every day. "They love us BIG and they make sure that we know it every waking moment of the day!" says Melissa. She still jokes that if she gets sick again, Blake should surprise her with another puppy.
