About Trixie

Trixie is a 2.5-year-old Australian Kelpie mix with an irresistibly cute look and a spirited personality. She’s still a bit wary of people and will need someone patient and gentle to help her come out of her shell. Spend some time with her, show a little kindness (and maybe a few tasty snacks), and Trixie will slowly become more trusting. She’s playful and sweet but tends to play too rough with small puppies, not always realizing when it gets to be too much for them. A securely fenced yard is a must; Trixie is a skilled fence-jumper and needs an environment where she can stay safely contained. She’s looking for an adopter who is experienced and knows how to help a shy dog build confidence. Trixie does get along with other dogs and will thrive in a home with the right set-up and patient people. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
