Trixie 2

My story

Your Loyal, Loving Couch Potato Hi, I’m Trixie! I’m a 5-year-old, 61-pound Doberman Pinscher mix with a golden heart and an irresistible love for belly rubs. Life hasn’t always been kind to me – I was rescued from a ruff situation at the ESLR  “shelter” in Ensenada – but now I’m ready to start my new life with you! I’m the pawfect balance of mellow and playful. Most of the time, you’ll find me snoozing on the couch (I might even treat you to one of my cute little snores). Don’t let my relaxed vibe fool you – I still love my daily sniff walks! I’m great on a leash and never pull, but watch out if there’s a squirrel or bird nearby! I have a few special skills up my sleeve… I mean, paw. I’m a great guard dog who’ll give a bark or two if someone’s at the door, but nothing excessive. And when it comes to routines, I’m a quick learner! I’ve done a great job adjusting to life with my furry foster sibling.  I’ve already nailed bathroom, crate, and leash training. Like any cute girlie, I have a few quirks. I can occasionally get protective over my toys and food, so I’d do best with older kids who understand my boundaries. If I’m feeling bored, I might nudge your arm with my mouth to let you know it’s time for a walk or some playtime – but give me a toy, and I’m happy as can be! New noises like leaf blowers or cars in the rain can make me nervous, but a little soothing quickly reminds me that I’m safe. Health-wise, I’ve got some arthritis in my knees, which means I move a little slower sometimes. Don’t worry – it doesn’t stop me from enjoying life! My foster mom gives me some meds to keep me comfortable, and I’ll be ready to snuggle or stroll whenever you are. I’m currently taking Gabapentin (~$15.00), Carprofen (~$5.00),  and Dasuquin Advanced Chewable Tablets Small to Medium Dogs (~$33.00). What I love most in life is being close to my human. I’m the ultimate “velcro dog” who will sit by your side, rest my head in your lap, and gaze at you with love and gratitude. I’ve been through a lot, but I can’t wait to share my big heart with a family who loves me as much as I love them! What do you say? You bring the belly rubs and I’ll bring the unconditional love! You can also check me out on my foster’s Insta @alfiesfosterfriends My adoption fee is $250 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.
