Story
Trixie is a gentle senior girl who has been through far more than any dog ever should. She first came to Follow Your Heart earlier this year as a “last litter” mama, and when her owners recently decided to surrender her, we didn’t hesitate for a second to bring her back into our loving arms.After a decade of surviving on the streets, raising litter after litter, and never truly knowing comfort, Trixie is finally getting her chance at the soft, peaceful life she has always deserved.✨ Why Trixie is a Gem:• Housebroken and wonderfully polite• Great on a leash — she loves slow, gentle strolls• Non-destructive and can be trusted alone• Kennel trained and enjoys having her own cozy spot• Calm, quiet, and incredibly easy to have in the homeTrixie is still learning that she’s safe now. She needs a patient, loving home that will give her time to decompress and discover all the little joys of indoor life — warm beds, predictable routines, and the freedom to finally relax without being on constant alert.With kindness, consistency, and a soft place to land, this beautiful soul will blossom. Whoever opens their heart to Trixie will be giving a senior dog the greatest gift of all: a peaceful, love-filled life she has waited far too long for. 💛If you think Trixie might be your forever girl, we’d love to introduce you.Meet Trixie — a gentle senior finally getting the soft life she’s always deserved.After years on the streets and raising countless litters, Trixie was surrendered back to us, and we welcomed her with open arms.
