About Trixie
Trixie is a delightful blend of snuggly and spirited—a true sweetheart with enough spark to keep life interesting. She loves couch time and will happily nap beside you, especially if there's a blanket handy. But don't be fooled; she's always up for a romp in the yard, running around with her toys, tail wagging in pure joy. Her silly antics and her endearing "happy feet" prance will brighten even the dullest day. She's earned the nickname "Baby Shark" for her curious, investigative style—sometimes she gets carried away and tries to gently nibble her way through new experiences. Trixie shares a strong bond with her foster dog brother, showing she's at ease with other dogs, though she’s still learning about sharing space during meals and when toys come into play. As she continues to build trust, she's learned her space and belongings are safe with the people she loves. Training comes naturally to Trixie; she’s food-motivated, knows how to "sit," and is working on "wait" and "drop it." Walks are one of her favorite adventures, and while new scents can distract her, she’s making steady progress with leash manners. She does well in her crate, sleeps soundly, and loves a car ride—always calm and ready to explore. Trixie's gentle nature shines, especially with young children, and the patience she shows with her foster family's toddler is remarkable. Her affection and goofy, loyal spirit are unmistakable. Trixie is looking for a home that will continue her journey with a mix of guidance and love. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
