My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Pixie is a very wiggly, super sweet, friendly and energetic, two-year-old, 27-pound, female, fawn brindle and white Boxer/Boston Terrier-mix looking for a loving guardian. Pixie has an adorable underbite, upturned nose, and gorgeous amber-colored eyes. She is full of kisses and tail wags; she adores people and stays right by your side lovingly. She doesn’t appear to know any formal commands yet, but she takes treats very gently from your fingers. This goofy little girl thinks she’s a lap dog. Pixie was rescued from Chicago Animal Care and Control. She is petrified of other dogs, and has not been cat-tested. Perhaps it’s because she lived alone in backyard since puppyhood where she became flea and fly-bitten. She has gotten so much healthier since she’s been in a foster home. Pixie jumps up on people, so she may not be best with children under the age of ten. But, she is crate-trained and is working on her housebreaking. She needs a patient dog-lover to take her under their wing for training, exercise and love.

If you are interested in temporarily fostering or permanently adopting Pixie, please contact Melia at melia88@comcast.net for a foster or adoption application. Her adoption donation of $200 benefits the rescued dogs of Lucky Dog Rescue. She is being fostered in Chicago, Illinois.
