About Pixie

Meet Pixie! This charming little Chihuahua mix, possibly with some Dachshund in her, is around 10 months old and tips the scales at about 13 pounds. Rescued from the streets of Modesto while she was just a skinny puppy, she quickly made herself at home in the sanctuary and has gotten along wonderfully with other dogs since her arrival. Pixie is funny, outgoing, and full of affection. She enjoys being around children, cats, and dogs alike, making her an excellent companion for a family. She is spayed, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. While she has not been confirmed as house-trained yet, her new family should be prepared for a little practice. This little bundle of joy is looking for a loving home where she can shower her new family with love. Ready to meet Pixie? Click apply to start the adoption process.
