Sleeping Setup:She sleeps peacefully in a cozy bed next to her foster siblings. Personality:Dixie is a sweet, loyal, and affectionate little companion who thrives on love and attention. She’s the perfect size to go anywhere with you—whether it's a walk around the neighborhood, a road trip, or curling up on the couch. She’s social, calm, and great with other dogs. Though she hasn’t lived with kids, her loving and gentle nature makes her a wonderful fit for families. She’s also an ideal second dog—she enjoys canine company and knows how to share space respectfully. All she asks for is her own quiet spot to eat—other than that, she’s easygoing and full of love to give. Dixie’s Ideal Home:Dixie would be happiest in a home where she can be part of the action—going for walks, riding in the car, and soaking up cuddles on the couch. She’d do well with singles, couples, or families, and would love to have a calm dog sibling (or be your one and only). Her small size and good manners make her a great fit for city living or cozy spaces. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance lovebug with a resilient spirit and a whole lot of heart—Dixie’s your girl. Dixie’s Rescue Story – A Journey from Survival to LoveDixie was rescued from an unthinkable situation. She was found in heartbreaking condition—malnourished, covered in painful skin issues, and emotionally shut down. Her life up to that point had been one of survival. She was being kept by a homeless man who used her solely to breed puppies, selling them on the street for money. Dixie had given everything she had to care for those pups—at great cost to herself. When her rescuer found her, she pleaded to save the whole group. The man refused to give up the puppies, but he let Dixie go. It was the first act of kindness she'd received in a long time. That day changed everything. Dixie received immediate medical attention, nourishing food, and—most importantly—love. Slowly but surely, she began to heal. Her fur grew back. Her eyes brightened. And her personality emerged: soft, soulful, and full of quiet strength. Dixie is Ready for Her Second ChanceDixie is safe now—but what she needs next is a forever home where she’ll never be used or forgotten again. She’s come so far. Now all she needs is someone to love her like she deserves. From pain To healing To a new beginning Will you be the one to give Dixie the forever she’s been waiting for?
