About Trixie
Foster home needed with no other dogs or cats.
Trixie's new home will have:
- Trixie will need to be an only dog with her people home more often than not.
- Trixie would love to go on family outings, markets, kids sports, family days out etc.
- Trixie is food motivated and loves to train with food rewards, making her ideal for dog sports like agility or obedience.
- To be allowed inside when her family is home and to sleep inside of a night.
- A secure yard.
Trixie loves to be with her people, whether that’s sitting at their feet while they work in the office or following them on their next adventure or to the next room, she loves them so much she doesn't want to share them with other dogs. Trixie has been to work a few times with her carer and has loved meeting everyone and sneaking a cheeky little lick to the face in where she can. Trixie loves to play with other dogs, but can get grumpy when she is asked to share her humans, so will be better as an only dog.
Trixie has met young children and was surprisingly gentle and laid on her back for belly rubes, because she can at times get excited and can jump up especially if the kids have food or are running she will be best no to live with kids under 10. She will need consistent training for her to remember as an adult not to jump.
Trixie is great in the car and has been on a couple of 3-hour trips and travelled great. Trixie is learning to walk on the lead and is a fast learner. With the exception of the first 10 minutes when she is excited, she soon settles and enjoys walking beside her person and having a sniff. Trixie has been on a 50ft long lead and enjoys this. Her foster carers use this time to practice her recall and she loves the extra freedom this safely gives her. Trixie is easy to train and loves to work for her food.
Trixie does pretty well with toileting outside when she has regular access to outside.
Trixie loves to be with her people so must be allowed inside when they are home, and to be able to sleep inside of a night so she is a part of the family. Trixie is very much a little shadow & all she wants to do is please you.

We do require you to travel to meet the animal you are looking to adopt. For dog adoptions, any other dogs in your home musr attend the meet and greet, this enables us to assess their compatibility and helps prevent them being returned and creating more confusion/insecurities for the foster animal.
