About Pixie

Meet Pixie, a delightful 5-year-old American Staffordshire Terrier mix currently waiting for her forever home in Houston, TX. She brings warmth and joy wherever she goes and loves spending time with kids, eagerly joining in their play like one of their own. Pixie is a well-mannered lady who's both potty and crate trained.
