About Pixie

Meet Pixie, a lively and charming mixed-breed dog with a playful spirit and a touch of sass. At about 2 years old, this medium-sized girl is vaccinated, microchipped, and awaiting her spay surgery in a few weeks. She came to the shelter as a stray, and while she's made progress in her socialization, she still needs a patient adopter who can help her continue her journey. Pixie takes time to warm up to new people, so families with young children may not be the best fit. She thrives in a quiet environment where she can build trust without the stress of other pets, as she's not fond of sharing her space with dogs or cats. Although it will take some time for her to feel comfortable and secure, Pixie is looking for a loving home where she can truly shine. If you're interested in getting to know her, visit the shelter from Tuesday to Saturday between 10 am and 6 pm. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
