They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Vixen is a beautiful 2-year-old Portuguese Podengo/Greyhound mix whose adoption fee has been reduced to $250. She spent her early life as a rabbit hunting dog living outdoors in Southeastern Massachusetts and is now ready for a loving home or a foster-to-adopt situation. Since arriving in care, Vixen has been making great progress with her house training, though she still needs to be crated overnight and wears a diaper when loose indoors to prevent accidents. Her ideal adopter will be patient with this process and understand her routine. On leash, Vixen walks very nicely, but her breed makes her naturally "flighty"—she should never be off leash, and her new family must take care to keep doors and yard fencing secure. Vixen is wonderful with other dogs, gets along well with confident cats, and enjoys people, though she can be a little reserved at first and needs a moment to warm up for attention. Because of her nervous and flighty nature, a home without small children is best. Despite her cautious side, she is a total snuggle bug and the perfect companion for someone seeking a gentle couch pal. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
