Dixie is a roughly 4.5 year old mixed breed. She was one of 11 puppies found by a family member during a hike in 2018. After being tended to and cared for by our Vet, she and her brother Bucky went to another family member. Unfortunately that family member passed away unexpectedly and she has come to us. She does not get along with our much older dog and is too big/strong for spouse to handle. She has always been around cats and is fine with them.
