Xena

My story

To learn more about Xena, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org Xena was surrendered from a commercial breeder. She was no longer wanted, and had no place to go. Xena deserved better, so we opened our doors and hearts to change that for her. She is an adorable, special little dog who has endured quite a lot on her way to the safety of Lost Dog & Cat Rescue Foundation. She is looking for a family with abundant patience, love, and an understanding of her needs to help her be a wonderful companion - and your best friend forever. She would especially enjoy the company of another dog to show her how much fun being a part of a family can be! Xena is a very sweet, smart, and adaptable girl. She figured out the stairs on her own, has almost mastered house training, likes to be on the sofa with everyone watching TV, playing with her foster brother (a short game of chase), and likes to share her crate with her BFF (Beagle Best Friend). Like all beagles, Xena loves food, and now that she's learned what a treat is, she's always first in line when it's cookie time. She's still learning house manners - like taking things off the coffee table - and other places. But she has been left in her foster home uncrated with her foster siblings for 3+ hrs, and she does really well. While she's friendly with dogs, Xena is still tentative around humans. Once given time, she warms up well and likes to follow her humans around the house, like a shadow! Xena would love a backyard to explore and chase squirrels. She would definitely do better in a home with other dog siblings, but we aren’t sure how she would do with cats. Contact Lost Dog if you can give Xena the chance to thrive in a nurturing environment.
