My story

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

Cuddly Potato in Need of a New Home!

Trixie is a 6 year old Jack Russel who spent most of her time helping grandma keep the recliner in place. Unfortunately, Grandma and two other caretakers have all passed away.

Trixie is a very sweet, cuddly, loving dog. She has been a companion to an elderly woman for her whole life, so she hasn't seen a lot of the world and sometimes gets spooked by larger animals or loud noises. But recently she has been very bravely going on big walks and facing her fears (city busses, AC units, loud trash cans, etc...). Her favorite thing to do outside is look for chipmunks. She is generally good with other dogs on leash, but has shown territorial behavior with smaller dogs off leash once before. Good with kids and adults. No health issues aside from slightly wobbly knees from being 2lbs overweight. Spayed and up to date on vaccinations.

If you know of a loving lap or couch for this potato, please reach out!
