My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi, my name is Dixie. What's yours? Anyway, nice to meet ya!
Hey! Before you get attached to me, read all the way to the bottom. You will see that I am still in Houston, TX but I want to get OUT of Houston and OUT of Texas so I can have a really good life. I want to see Texas in my rear view mirror. A nice person came along and took me in and, now, I am ready to hit the road to your house! Uh, make that “our” house, OK? As soon as you adopt me, I’ll be on my way to you! I am very excited to find my forever home. I'm a good girl. You'll see!

I am a 3 year old female who was turned into the rescue pregnant and heart worm positive. I have since had my puppies and been treated for the heart worms and am now ready for my forever home! I am a major cuddle bug and just wants to be by my people. I do fine with calm dogs but would much prefer to be the center of attention. I am also definitely a couch potato. My happiest time is when I'm chilling on the couch with my foster mom watching TV. I am house-trained. I am crate-trained. I have had all of my shots and have been spayed and I'm ready to go to my new home with YOU! Those funny-looking 2-legged creatures also say that I am microchipped – whatever THAT is.

Wanna hear more good stuff about me? OK, here goes. I am a friendly girl. I love kids and adults. I am a very cuddly girl. So get ready to cuddle with me. OK? What do ya' say? Huh? I LOVE my peeps


My foster mom loves me SO much that she only wants me to fly to my new home even if a pet transport truck was available. See my adoption information below.

If you would like to take me home (and you know you do), please email westhoustonanimalrescue@yahoo.com and she can get me on my way to a new and loving home! My adoption fee is $650 USD and includes my vetting, spaying, microchip, health certificate, travel crate AND transportation on United Airlines from Houston, TX to areas in the Northeast U. S., North Central U. S., Northwest U. S., and Canada and will be arranged by the rescue group. (This is a courtesy posting.)
