Trixie
was rescued from a busy shelter in Los Angeles where she was just
one of many abandoned dogs and she was never even given a second
glance by potential adopters. Trixie
was flown to British Columbia and she has found a fabulous new home in Powell
River. Her family is
very patient and has lots of experience working with dogs.
Trixie is timid and lacks confidence, but they are committed
to continuing to expose her to new experiences and helping to
improve her self-esteem. Trixie loves her new canine sibling (a Shih
Tzu). They bonded right away and acted as if they'd been
friends forever. They've been playing nicely ever since.
***An
update from Trixie's family:
“Trixie
is doing wonderfully. She's now house trained and plays and
has tons more confidence. She still has abandonment issues and
needs more socialization but otherwise she gets on with everyone but
our cat. She's very protective and loyal and is a great little
doggie. She likes to sleep in the bed, under the covers.
I knit her her own sweater and she doesn't seem to mind wearing it
on cold days. She is still a bit of a scrounger and can find
food anywhere. She has put on weight but it is all muscle.
She's a forever part of our family. Thank you from us and
especially from her for the rescue.”
