My story

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

Meet Dixie, a sweet and loving Miniature Poodle who’s ready to find her forever home! Dixie came to us from a breeder in Missouri who was closing down. She was originally thought to be a 3-year-old Maltipoo, but after getting a proper bath and some TLC, we discovered she’s actually around 10 years old and a Miniature Poodle, not a Maltipoo! Her apricot-colored coat turned out to be white underneath, and although she arrived a bit scared and smelling less than fresh, she’s blossomed into the sweetest little companion.

Dixie has cataracts and doesn’t see well, but that doesn’t stop her from being incredibly social and affectionate. She loves being around people, and there’s nothing she enjoys more than hopping up on a lap for some pets and snuggles. She’s also a big fan of greeting everyone who enters her home with a wagging tail and a happy spirit.

Dixie is wonderful with other dogs and cats, and she's currently playing the role of a loving mother to the kittens in her foster home, allowing them to cuddle up with her. She would thrive in a home with another dog companion to keep her company and help her continue to build confidence.

This sweet girl is fully housetrained and is trusted to roam free when her foster family is out. She does need a bit of help with stairs—while she can manage a few steps, she can’t do a full flight on her own. Dixie would love a securely fenced yard where she can safely explore and enjoy the outdoors.

Dixie is a true gem: a gentle, affectionate dog with a big heart who is ready to bring joy to her new family. If you're looking for a cuddly, sweet companion who just needs a little extra love and care, Dixie may be the perfect fit for you!

Dixie is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm tested, microchipped and just had a dental.
