Trixie's Story
Meet Trixie!<br/><br/>Trixie is a true survivor. This amazing little dog — a Chihuahua-pug mix with big eyes and an even bigger personality — was found as a stray, likely after being hit by a car. She is 5–6 years old and weighs just 8 pounds, she’s the perfect pint-sized companion.<br/><br/>When she was rescued, Trixie had a broken pelvis and a fractured right femur. She was quickly evaluated by an orthopedic specialist, and her femur was surgically repaired. <br/><br/>Fortunately, her pelvis did not require surgery and is healing well on its own with time, rest, and lots of TLC. <br/><br/>Trixie is currently staying with a medical foster, where she’s recovering beautifully and gaining strength every day. She’s expected to be ready for adoption in late fall! <br/><br/>Despite her injuries, Trixie’s spirit never wavered. She even taught herself how to get around on her front legs, holding her back legs up like a little acrobat — hence her nickname, the "Trixie Trickster." With therapy and patience, she’s beginning to use her back legs again and is making wonderful progress.<br/><br/>Trixie is mostly housebroken and crate trained. She’s a confident little lady who knows what she wants and isn’t shy about telling you. Some might call her bossy — we say she’s got character!
