Rescued from a severe hoarding situation, she’s now safe and looking for a forever home. Initially, Dixie tends to be an observer. With a bit of patience, a calm voice, and a few treats, her true personality emerges in tender ways—gentle curiosity, slow tail wags, and an eventual willingness to inch closer when she feels comfortable. Once she trusts you, she becomes a loyal companion. Dixie walks gracefully on leash and has a calming presence, making her a soothing addition to any household. Her floppy ears invite affection, and her expressive eyes seem to genuinely take in those who are kind to her. As she gains confidence, Dixie will want to be by your side, ready to keep her family company. She is eager to find her forever family, so consider starting the adoption process today. Dixie is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations, and microchipped. Though she tested positive for Heartworm disease after her rescue, she has successfully completed treatment thanks to Home for Good Dog Rescue. It’s essential to be aware of Heartworm disease, which can be serious if untreated. Given her background, Dixie gets along with dogs but does not get along with cats. Ready to meet this sweet girl?
