AvailableAbout Pixie
Pixie is a petite and precious 10(ish)-year-old Chihuahua weighing just 7lbs of pure sweetness. This little lady has so much love to give and is looking for her perfect forever home to spend her golden years in comfort and peace. Small in size but big in personality, Pixie was rescued in Texas and now loves to be cuddled like a baby. She is gentle, calm, and has the quiet charm that only a senior dog can offer. Pixie thrives in a calm, quiet environment where she can feel safe and relaxed — a busy or loud household may feel a little overwhelming for this delicate soul. She does wonderfully with the help of a dog playpen, giving her her own cozy sanctuary where she can retreat and recharge on her own terms. If you are looking for a loyal, low-key companion who simply wants to be loved and cared for in her senior years, Pixie could be exactly who you've been waiting for. Could you be the one to give this little girl the peaceful forever home she so deserves? Other notes from the foster: - After she acclimates in the playpen, she's very good at mapping out your apartment [she does this by circling and will appear confused; that's just her getting to know her space] and will bump into minimal things once that is done. Great memory for where here beds, bowls are etc. - Loveees to sleep but equally likes to lick a bully stick, roll a treat ball or do a snuffle mat - Loves to be held on her back like a baby - She is deaf. Her eyesight is minimal but she sees motion and has a magnified nose because of this - Food motivated. Despite her eyesight, she has a talent for knowing exactly when you put her dinner bowl on the floor and will do a speedrun to get to her food. She only has a few teeth, but we wet her solid food with some broth or warm water and she eats it just fine - She doesn't seem to mind other dogs sharing her space or treats! INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?
