Trixie a young Chihuahua

My story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.**TRIXIE** Trixie is a tiny, 7-pound bundle of energy and embodies the typical characteristics of a Chihuahua. She was initially found as a stray and was adopted the day after being spayed. At that time, she was in pain and faced the challenge of adjusting to a new home filled with children, cats, and a large dog. Overwhelmed and fearful, Trixie struggled to cope with her surroundings and her pain, leading to her being returned to the shelter. Rompin Paws stepped in to help her find a forever home. As a young Chihuahua, Trixie needs a person or couple who has experience with small dog breeds, particularly Chihuahuas. Having gone through traumatic experiences, she requires an adopter who is patient, understanding, and empathetic. Once Trixie feels secure and knows you are on her side, she will bond with you for life and become a loyal companion that you can take everywhere. Currently, Trixie is living with three other dogs at the rescue and gets along well with them, provided there are no food or toys involved. She does exhibit resource guarding tendencies, but these behaviors are manageable. I can offer guidance to her future adopter on how to address this behavior effectively. Trixie is very trainable, food motivated, and eager to learn. This sweet girl is working on navigating life after facing several disappointments, and she has the potential to truly thrive with the right person. **Adopting Trixie** Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 23, 2025, 1:46 pm
