My story

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

NAME:
Pixie

STATS:
Female, Poodle/Maltese mix, 7 months, 8 lbs.

TEMPERAMENT:
Shy at first and warms up to friendly.
Shows some food guarding issues, so would benefit from seasoned owner.*
Playful, but not overly so.

SKILLS
Doing great with potty training.
Crate trained.
Good with dogs.
Likes walks, but not great for hiking.
Has not been exposed to children but should do well with older children (12 and up).
Has not been exposed to cats.
Would benefit from basic training.

MORE ABOUT ME:
Likes belly rubs.
Couch cuddler.
Likes walks.
Likes playing with other dogs.
Needs patient owner willing to work on behavior (see details below).*

ONE LAST THING:
Pixie is sure to charm you with her sweet personality. She greets everyone with a wagging tail, begging to be picked up and loved. Pixie spends her days happily sitting on laps, playing with her toys, and romping with the resident dog. She is fully crate trained and sleeps through the night without a fuss or accidents. When properly introduced, she likes to play with other dogs. She will come with her favorite platypus stuffie, which she carries around like a pacifier.

*Pixie does resource guard her food and may resource guard other things at times. If startled, she barks for a few seconds, and can be 'nippy' when fearful or upset. She will need a patient and loving forever home to help build her confidence so she can blossom into the wonderful pup she's meant to be.September 27, 2024, 7:48 pm

More about this rescue

Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home abandoned, abused, stray and neglected animals, primarily from high-kill shelters. We collaborate with other rescue groups and animal shelters to improve the lives of animals at risk for euthanisia. We work to provide solutions which seek to end the animal over-population and educate people to be responsible pet owners and "fur-ever guardians."
