A little about me...
My name is Pixie—or Pixie Pup, as my mom calls me. I’m the youngest of 4 canines in my home. I have two dachshund siblings and I’m not sure how I ended up here. Mom said I was born a few counties away from her and I was on my own for awhile. Some people picked me up and I was adopted by a family. I stayed with them 9 months, but they didn’t want me anymore. Another nice lady took me in, but her other dogs didn’t like me. I was only there 3 days. Then they contacted my mom. As soon as I walked in, I knew I was home. I love long walks and sleeping on my back. I love tummy rubs and running the fence with the neighbor’s dog. I LOVE sleeping in my grandma’s big bed. I am extremely sweet and won’t use my teeth to take treats—just my lips. Sometimes I think I’m a dachshund and try to fit in very small spaces on the couch. I love to snuggle with my mom and grandma and I will protect them from all squirrels!! I’m a Beagle/Australian Cattle Dog mix. Mom loves my eyes!
