Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Please meet Dixie!

Dixie is a female Lab mix that we rescued from the Atlanta Humane Society in April of 2024 and weighs 59 pounds. Dixie loves food and all toys that you could place in front of her.

Dixie has been house-trained and responds exceptionally well to "leave it", "wait" and "free!!" We are still working on "sit", "shake" and a few others, but she responds well to the ones mentioned above, she has also been spayed and limited professional training.

Unfortunately, Dixie does have a bit of fear & anxiety (separation) and will look to always be by your side. We have recently placed her on Paroxetine to help her with this condition.

Our home situation is a busy one, with one other dog in the house as well. A 3 year old Shepherd mix named Scout. The two of them got along for 5 months well. As Dixie has matured the dominant traits in both (female) dogs has come forth and our situation has become untenable.

Dixie will need a single dog home for this reason.

Thank you!
