Story
This adorable little gal is Dixie! She is a 7year old female terrier mix. Dixie is looking for a special home with patient humans. Dixie has high anxiety and is very skittish. She’ll growl and show her teeth when she’s scared so a calmer home is preferred. She will bit if she is continually pushed so a home with no small kids is a must. Despite this, she is a super sweet dog who craves human love. Although Dixie tolerates the other dogs in her foster home, she would prefer to be an only dog so she can have all the attention. She desperately wants to be snuggled and feel secure. Dixie would be the perfect companion in a quiet, adult-only home. DIXIE'S ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED FOR THE RIGHT APPLICANT!! Dixie is spayed, current on all vaccinations, heartworm negative, and is kept on monthly heartworm and flea prevention. To adopt you MUST fill out an application which can be done on our website at www.handsofhoperescue.com. March 1, 2025, 4:10 pm

Story
Meet the absolutely sweet Athena! She a 4-year old, 65 lb mixed breed. Athena is gorgeous inside and out! She is the sweetest girl who gives the best snuggles. Athena is very kind and gentle with the smaller dogs in her foster home, and has also done well with a dog her size. It is unknown how Athena would do with cats but does do well with kids. Athena is a very smart girl who already knows “sit” and “shake”. She is a people pleaser and is capable of learning so much more with some basic training. She came from a home who loved her and spoiled her so she is looking for the same type of new home. Athena is house broke, but does not appreciate being crated. She is up to spayed, current on all vacs, microchipped, heartworm negative and on monthly prevention. The first step to adopt is by filling out an online application at www.handofhoperescue.com!
