Trixie

My story

Trixie - Female Lab/feist Mix (Breed and weight at full growth are BEST GUESS ONLY) Date of Birth 3/29/25 Current Weight 20lbs Meet Trixie (but you can call her Trix!) – sweet as a Trix bar and twice as lovable! 🍬🐶 This adorable little pup is a delightful mix of playful energy and snuggly sweetness. Trix is the respectful little sister every older dog dreams of—she knows her manners and lets the senior resident dog rule the roost with grace and admiration. But don’t be fooled—she’s got a joyful, bouncy side too! She absolutely loves romping around with the younger pups in her foster home, making every play session look like a mini puppy party. That said, her favorite thing in the world? Cuddling up with her foster mom. Trix is a total snugglebug and will often choose cozy lap time over rowdy games—though she’s always down to switch it up if the mood strikes! She's working on her crate training (a little protest at first, but she’s learning fast!) and doing great with potty training and leash walking. With a few tasty treats and a patient guide, she’s well on her way to being a perfect little lady. Trix would thrive in just about any loving home—she’s easygoing, affectionate, and has a heart as soft as her velvety ears. Ready to add some sugar-sweet sunshine to your life? Trix is waiting with tail wags and puppy kisses!

Our goal is to place our babies in forever homes. The potential adopter needs to be dedicated to their care and training for life. Understand that sharing your life with a dog can be a commitment of 15+ years. This would include feeding, exercise, training, vetting, and providing a loving home.
