About Lexi
Meet Lexi, a striking 1-year-old Greyhound x Rhodesian Ridgeback mix ready to begin a new chapter of her life with a patient and loving family. With eyes full of hope and a coat that speaks of her breed's elegance, Lexi is an endearing companion seeking a home where she can truly thrive.
Lexi's early life was lacking in social interaction, which means she can be a bit shy at first. However, once she gets to know you, she reveals her sweet and loving nature. She warms up slowly but steadily to both people and dogs, and she appreciates interactions that respect her pace. If you have children, Lexi would fit best in a household where the kids are dog -savy so they can understand her need for gentle introductions and patience. She can be a little anxious when left alone initially but then she settles down for a nap. An adopter who is able to help her adjust to alone time incrementally would be perfect!
Lexi is pretty dog neutral and can live with or without a dog.
Lexi's potential shines the brightest when in a calm, understanding environment where her confidence can blossom. She would be a lovely companion for someone who is willing to invest time and care into her development, rewarding them with a loyal, affectionate friend in return. With the right guidance and a little bit of time, Lexi is sure to become a cherished member of her new family.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
