Despite enduring unimaginable hardships Pixie's spirit remains unbroken. Now, she's searching for her forever home filled with warmth, kindness, and endless belly rubs. Can you help erase the pain of her past and give Pixie the love and security she deserves? See more about her below... Hello, I'm Pixie, a resilient 5-6yr old Chihuahua with a heart full of love. After a year of enduring the harsh streets alone, my world changed when compassionate hands rescued me. At 10 lbs, I'm a delightful goofball seeking a forever home filled with kindness and patience. Initially shy, I blossom into a sweet, affectionate companion once I feel safe. Picture a home with a big backyard where I can frolic freely – I yearn for playtime, and your love can heal the wounds of my past. I'm a lap dog at heart, finding solace pressed against you or nestled in your lap for belly rubs. I've mastered the art of using wee wee pads when left alone, and I'll even signal when nature calls. Walks are a joy, and I get along well with other dogs, despite the loneliness I endured for that challenging year. Despite the shadows that haunt my past, I'm incredibly affectionate, quick to learn, and a true embodiment of love. My foster mom raves about my good nature, and your love could be the missing piece in my journey to healing.

  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.
