as along with her two tiny pups. Sadly, one didn’t survive, but Dixi poured every ounce of love she had into caring for her remaining baby, Paul. She proved herself to be a devoted, protective, and deeply loving mama — and now it’s finally her turn to be cared for. We believe Dixi is about 3 years old and likely endured multiple litters before rescue. Despite everything she’s been through, she is incredibly sweet, affectionate, and loyal. She loves gentle pets, gives soft kisses, and bonds deeply with “her people.” She has done beautifully living with dogs of all sizes and truly needs another confident dog (or dogs) in the home to help her feel safe and secure. Dixi was recently adopted, and while her adopters cared for her and tried their best, their busy, active household proved overwhelming for her sensitive nature. Dixi is a fearful girl who thrives in calm environments. When she feels anxious or unsure, she may have accidents indoors — not because she isn’t housetrained (she is!), but because fear can take over. In her quiet foster home, she did not have these issues. Dixi’s dream home: • Quiet, predictable household • At least one confident dog companion • Patient adopter who understands shy dogs • Someone willing to give her time to decompress and feel safe She has already come so far from where she started and, with the right environment, she will blossom into the loyal, loving companion we know she is. Dixi has survived neglect, loss, and big changes — what she needs now is someone who sees her gentle heart and gives her the peaceful life she deserves. If you think you might be her safe place, please apply at .northstarpets and ask for Dixi by name.

  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.
