Introducing Trixie, the star of our show! 🌟 This magnificent 2-year-old female German Shepherd weighs about 53 pounds of pure love and energy. With her striking looks and sweet disposition, Trixie is not just a pretty face; she's also a protective companion who's ready to melt hearts with her affectionate kisses! 💖 Now, let’s talk about Trixie’s personality—she may be a bit anxious, and that’s totally okay! That just shows how sensitive and caring she is! Trixie’s protective nature means she’s always on guard to keep her home and her favorite human, Krista, safe. When new people arrive, you can count on Trixie to be the vigilant lookout, adding a little drama to the entrance! 🎭 A quick side note about Trixie’s past: she came from the Sac City Shelter, where she was adopted but her previous owner realized she needed more specialized attention than they could give. Lucky for Trixie, Krista stepped in to provide a loving home filled with care and cuddles until life threw her a curveball—Krista will soon require hip surgery that won’t allow her to give Trixie the exercise she deserves. So now, Trixie has her eyes set on a new loving home! 🏡 Trixie isn’t a fan of the feline friends—cats, beware! She’s also got a strong predatory instinct when it comes to squirrels. 🐿️ But not to worry, this lovely lady is housetrained and sleeps like a princess on Krista's bed at night. If she has to be left alone for more than an hour, she’s perfectly fine in her crate. Training-wise, Trixie's no rookie! She completed a six-session obedience class where she shined brighter than a diamond! 💎 She knows some commands but still needs practice on that leash because—oh boy—those squirrels really get her going! With a Gentle Leader, she's learning to pull a bit less, but she's still got that German Shepherd zest for life ready to be channeled. Now, who wouldn't want a travel buddy like Trixie? 🚗 She loves car rides and will be your calm companion as you go on adventures together! Just remember, she may get a tad reactive if someone approaches the car—it's just her protective side coming through. Trixie is looking for a forever home filled with love, understanding, and perhaps even some treats!
