They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Meet Alexis — or "Lexi," as she's affectionately called by those who know her. This gentle 1.5-year-old, 25-pound terrier mix is searching for a forever home filled with patience and kindness. Lexi’s tender heart makes her an incredibly loyal companion once she feels safe, although she can be shy and cautious at first, especially around new people and men. Life hasn't always been easy for Lexi, so she needs an adopter who is understanding and willing to let her blossom at her own pace. Lexi thrives in the company of other animals and will need a home that already has a confident, friendly dog who can help her grow in confidence and overcome her insecurities. She does beautifully with both dogs and cats, and their companionship brings out her best. Lexi is fully potty trained, crate trained, and walks nicely on a leash, making her a quiet and dependable friend. A calm, predictable home without young children will be the best fit for her, along with someone willing to introduce her gently to the world. While she isn’t a “ready-made” dog, her loving nature and capacity for trust mean she will form a deep, unique bond with the right person who gives her time and love. Lexi comes spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped. For those willing to give her the second chance she deserves, Lexi will reward you with unwavering devotion and companionship. Make their next chapter their best one yet.
