My story

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

Trixie is a shy, sweet mature doxie mix who came to rescue with her three housemates after losing their home and owner to a house fire. One thing that's apparent about all of these girlies is that they have been generously overfed! Trixie is now in foster and on a weight reduction diet to hopefully improve her overall health and long-term lifestyle. We are still learning about Trixie as she settles in to her foster home and we'll update information as we get it.

Trixie possibly is the mama of her pack when she came in because let me tell you she does not put up with any foolishness from her foster brothers and sister and will quickly tell them the business. Trixie doesn't or hasn't found her favorite place yet. She likes the privacy of her crate, she'll sleep in the bed, she'll lay on the couch, and at the moment she is laying on the floor under the Christmas tree. However, one thing is for certain she will latch on to her person and won't leave their side.

Cats? She shows little interest.

Leash? She's ok.....once she learned what it was and for.

Food? Her foster seen zero food aggression.

Not interested in toys.

Isn't doing well left alone. She'd really like someone who can be with her during the day. A work at home or retiree would be ideal.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is three-fold: submit an application, meet the pet, then arrange for us to do your in-home interview.
Adoption Fees:
Kittens: $60, Cats (1 year plus): $50, Puppies: $250, Adult Canines (1 to 6 years): $200, Seniors (7 years plus): $100 (unless otherwise specified). Adoption fees are not a tax-deductible donation as allowed by IRS regulations. Adoption fees help to offset the cost of the pet's care incurred by Coastal Pet Rescue, which are generally 2 to 3 times the adoption fee amount.
Some special circumstances may change the fee; see pet's listing for actual adoption fee.

All Coastal Pet Rescue pets are current on shots, microchipped* and spayed/neutered prior to adoption. Adopters are responsible for any shots that may be due after adoption (particularly for kittens and puppies that must have three rounds of shots to be protected).

Microchip:
CPR has implanted a microchip as part of the adoption process and the chip is included in the adoption fee. However, some chip companies require a registration fee varying from $9.99 to $19.99. The registration fees are the responsibility of the adopter and are NOT included in the CPR adoption fee. Adopters may add this cost to their adoption fee to have CPR register the chip on their behalf.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Most of our pets all live in our homes, so adoption applications must be submitted for appointments to be made to see the pets. We also have them with us at our outdoor events, so view our "events" calendar on our website for those dates and locations.
