Story
Short legs, big ears, curly tail, and a personality that could power a small city… Lizzy Pixie is the kind of dog that makes people smile the second they see her. With her corgi ears, little corgi legs, and adorable curly tail paired with a lab-like body, she’s basically the perfect mashup of all the cutest features rolled into one ridiculously lovable girl.

Lizzy Pixie is believed to be a Corgi mix, approximately 2 years old. With rescue dogs, it’s always a bit of a mystery and we can’t guarantee breed, but we’d confidently say she got the best of everything. The ears, the legs, the tail, and the happy personality to match. She’s the definition of fun-sized and currently weighs 34 lbs, so don’t let her pictures fool you. She’s a short gal and the perfect in-between size. Not too big, not too small… just right!
This girl absolutely loves people. She’s incredibly happy, joyful, and affectionate, and she isn’t shy about showing it. Lizzy thrives on attention, happily leans in for cuddles, and has the kind of bubbly personality that makes her a joy to be around. Whether she’s following you around the house, curling up next to you, or greeting you with her signature happy energy, she just makes life more fun.
Lizzy is dog friendly and She is currently fostered in a home with multiple dogs. Two small chihuahuas and another dog around 30 lbs and does great with all of them. Lizzy doesn’t immediately jump into play the second she meets a new dog, preferring to get comfortable first, but once she does, her playful side shines. She has a gentler playstyle and prefers games of tag-you’re-it, zooming around the yard, and sharing toys with her doggy friends rather than rough wrestling. She’s social, respectful, and just enjoys being part of the fun.
She also met our house cat Biggie and met him appropriately and was very respectful around him. She did not chase Biggie, nor was she bothered by Biggie jumping or doing what cats do. Biggie also felt comfortable around her as well. We do not know if she has ever lived in a home before with a cat and this was our first time seeing her with a cat. If you have a cat in the home, we can arrange for her to have a sleepover with a cat upon request. Just let us know!
Lizzy has such a well-balanced personality. She’s happy, silly, adventurous, and cuddly all at once. She loves toys (especially stuffy toys), enjoys playing in the water, and is great at entertaining herself when needed. She would be a wonderful fit for a semi-active family, but she’s also calm enough to be a great companion for someone who works from home. She’s just as happy going on an adventure as she is relaxing by your side afterward.
She’s crate trained, potty trained, and already knows how to use a doggy door. Lizzy Pixie also knows how to sit, is eager to please, and walks nicely on a leash. Though sometimes she likes to think she’s in charge of the walk and will walk with the leash in her mouth. She also loves car rides and will happily stick her head out the window, soaking up every second of the adventure.
Her ears might be what first catches your eye, but it’s her happy-go-lucky personality that really steals the show. Lizzy Pixie is the kind of dog that brings fun, affection, and laughter into your everyday life. She’s adorable, easy to love, and ready to be someone’s joyful little sidekick.
We are willing to test Lizzy Pixie with anything you need in order to ensure it's a perfect match. We can make anything happen! Just let us know.

https://g.co/kgs/UQ5Pyai We care deeply about creating lasting matches between dog and family for long term success, and take the time to ensure each adoption is a fit through our matchmaking process.
At our 2 acre Texas based property, we assess every animal with trainers on staff, we modify behavior as needed, and create individualized behavior plans to help prepare dogs for their future families including crate training, potty training, leash walking, etc. Our fosters are able to attend group training and socialization play groups helping them stay confident, well rounded, and adoption-ready. Our on-site trainers are dedicated to each dog’s growth and we enjoy seeing their progress!
We go above and beyond to ensure every animal receives exceptional care. Veterinarians consistently praise our medical standards. From routine care to advanced treatments, each dog receives personalized attention. Hard costs for a healthy dog range from $804-$920; heartworm-positive dogs or those needing specialized care can exceed $2,000+. Adoption fees help cover a portion of these expenses, but without government funding, we rely on fundraising to bridge the gap—ranging from $100–$1,000+ per dog.
Our adoption fees reflect the extensive care and resources that go into each animal we save. The adoption fee is a donation to the mission and goes far beyond getting a fully vetted pet.
