About Dixie

Meet Dixie, an exuberant 4-month-old Blue Heeler mix ready to bring joy and laughter into her new home. Weighing in at 17 lbs, she's expected to grow to about 45 lbs. Rescued from a high-kill shelter in Texas along with her sisters, she’s done with the uncertainty of her past and is eager to start fresh. Dixie's intelligence shines through, and she's already proving to be a quick learner, fitting right into puppy life with all its adventures. She is playful and loves engaging with her puppy pals, running and wrestling her way through each day with boundless spirit. This affectionate girl will thrive in an active household where she can partake in plenty of playtime, exercise, and training. Family-friendly, Dixie is great with children aged 6 and up and lovable to other dogs. She’s looking for someone who can devote time and energy to training, as she’s still a puppy adjusting to the world. She’s not yet spayed, but her future owner will need to complete that by the time she’s one year old, as per Colorado law. This smart girl is also fully vaccinated and in excellent health. Farfel’s Rescue offers a one-week trial with her adoption to ensure she’s the right fit for you. If you think you can commit to socialization classes and raising this precious pup, she might be the perfect addition to your family. Don't miss the chance to bring home this delightful companion.
