**TOP-DOG TRIXIE** Age 6mos Phoenix AZ. Please help us welcome Trixie to the FTP family! Trixie was found running around in traffic at our founder's store.

Trixie is a 6mo old mix of we think Australian Cattle Dog and Siberian Husky. She is now fully vetted, spayed, UTD on shots and microchipped. She is great in the car and has learned the doggie door. Trixie is in a foster home with big and small dogs and gets along great! Who's looking for a working breed dog to be an awesome travel and hiking buddy? Fill out an application and come meet her!

**DASHING DIEGO** Age 8mos Phoenix AZ. Please help us welcome this adorable little dude Diego. Diego was found running in the Laveen area with 3 friends and were rounded up and trapped by our friends at HARTT (AZ trapping) Community Group. Our little guy is about 8mos, weighs in at 9lbs and is basically fully grown. He has been fully vetted, altered, UTD on shots and microchipped. He is dog social with all sized dogs and loves humans. He is getting used to the car, but it is still a bit scary for him. He has learned to use the supervised doggie door and has a really sweet personality. We believe him to be a mix of Carin Terrier and Scottish Terrier. He has a beautiful black coat with white markings. Lookin' for pint sized love....look no further and fill out an application ASAP!
