illed out, middle-aged girl. Meet TRIXIE! This is a summary of Trixie's story. Trixie spent the first four years of her life on a very short chain and was very nearly starved to death. Animal Aid Vermilion area rescued her and took her into foster care. A best guess is that Trixie is part English bully and American Staffordshire pit. Once Trixie got into foster care she started gaining weight like crazy. We would learn that she is hypothyroid and has a genetic disorder called spondylosis (spinal issue). It took us quite a while to get her weight back down but that and her hypothyroid has been stabilized for quite some time on very inexpensive medication. We have followed her spondylosis and x-rays do not show any further deterioration. We did however find out that both of her back knees needed repairing, we raised funds and two successful surgeries were completed. Trixie can now Run and Jump as she pleases when she pleases. Fortunately, she's just not real hyper although she does like to silly play and loves playing with adolescent kids and adults. But she's just as happy sitting or laying with you in a room. She is most relaxed and absolutely loves to ride in a vehicle. Trixie is easy to bathe, easy to give medicine to and really not even difficult to nail clip. She's potty trained. She's wonderful. She's beautiful. She loves people and everybody who meets Trixie wishes they could take her home. Trixie is about 8 years old now and we need to find her that home where she will live out the rest of her days very comfortably and very loved. She has been with me for a year now and only God knows I do not want to let her go. However, I do have cats and lots of other dogs and Trixie is not comfortable with other dogs being around her resources. She needs her own family who will take her on Long rides and long walks and/or has a fenced-in yard. She deserves companionship and her own family.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
