My story

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


Dixie lived next door to me. Mostly she was kept in a Kong cage in their house (climate controlled to humans). Sometimes I would help the 11yr old boy walk her up & down our street. There were 2 other dogs and 3 cats in the house, but Dixie's cage kept her from them. One of Dixie's owners died and the other was asked to move on short notice. The local animal shelter couldn't take her. Dixie came to stay with me until we can find her a better home. I had her checked for heartworm=negative, now she takes an edible monthly. She got her shots August 19th 2024. She weighed 108 lbs. She also got a Bordetella vaccination so she can be boarded at a kennel. She is three yrs. old, loving, playful, sweet,& slobbery. She is protective. She can be stubborn & dominant. She is VERY strong. We are working on 1 & 2 word commands. She has a new harness to help me control her outside. I couldn't get her a "Spay" appt. until January 2025.
