Lexi is a 7-year-old, 6-month-old spayed female Catahoula Leopard Dog/Cattle Dog mix, with a striking brindle and golden coat. She’s a medium-sized dog, living in Point Richmond, CA. Lexi is vaccinated and would fit best in an adult home due to her energy and temperament. She’s not suited for homes with children and thrives with those who have experience with large, active dogs.

About Lexi

Lexi is full of energy and spirit—a loyal companion who forms quick bonds with her people. She thrives on interacting, learning, and playing, especially when fetch is involved. Lexi is already solid with her basic commands like sit, lay down, take it, and drop it. She’s happiest when she’s busy and wants to be engaged and included in everything you do. This girl does best in active households familiar with large, lively dogs. At about 55 lbs, she’s lean, athletic, and perfect for families who love wide open spaces, hiking, running, or even jogs alongside a buggy. Lexi is food motivated, making training a rewarding experience for both of you. She enjoys a good swim, splashing in the creek or pool every chance she gets. At the sanctuary, she's sharing space with three other dogs and doing well, but Lexi can also shine as the only dog, especially for adopters with less experience managing dog dynamics. She’s playful, affectionate, and adores being the center of attention. With her beautiful golden brindle coat and tomboy energy, Lexi is looking to be the heart of an active, adult-only home.
