Meet Pixie — Eight Years Young and Full of Life!Pixie may be considered a senior at eight years old, but someone forgot to tell her! This adorable little lady has the energy and playful spirit of a two-year-old, along with a heart full of love to share!Sadly, Pixie's beloved owner passed away, and with no family members able to take her in, she now finds herself searching for a new forever home.Pixie is an absolute sweetheart who loves everyone she meets! She's wonderful with adults, children, and seniors, and she's always happy to curl up in someone's lap for cuddles and attention. She also adores other dogs, greeting them with a wagging tail and happily playing with her canine friends throughout the day.This fun-loving girl enjoys going for walks, does well on a leash despite a little pulling, and absolutely LOVES car rides! She's housetrained, reliably uses a doggy door, and has never needed to be crated.Pixie would thrive in a loving, active home where she can enjoy daily walks, perhaps an occasional hike, plenty of playtime, and, of course, lots of lap time!Pixie may have lost her first forever home, but she has so much love and happiness left to give. All she needs is someone to open their heart and give this precious girl the wonderful second chapter she deserves!All known information about the animal is listed above.
