Dixie.... what a LOVE! Dixie was born in 2000 and came to us from a shelter in L.A. back in 2002. I honestly don't know how she has not been snatched up yet! She is so sweet and loving with people, but she is a bit picky with the doggie friends she meets. She generally does well with one other doggie companion as long as it is a male. So far she has shown no affection for other females though! And sorry.... no cats for this girl either. What a pretty girl!!!Dixie being coy! She can be a bit camera shy.
Oh my gosh - All of the best girl dogs are moving to the Fairway!!!

Such a loving girl!!! Hope she finds her family soon. She truly deserves it (not like they all don't, right?). Below is a pic of Dixie on a recent sleepover.
What a pretty girl! She does deserve a good home. We got to meet Dixie, and I can tell you even though she is not a small dog she wants to be a lap dog! She will climb right up and snuggle with you.
I took Dixie for an outing the other day...I was shocked to learn that volunteers aren't beating down the doors for a chance to hang out with Dixie! First, we stopped off at the hotel for a quick snooze. I had noticed that she really seemed to enjoy the ride from the sanctuary. So, after her nap, we got back in the car and just drove around for about 40 minutes. Dixie rode shotgun and made sure that I didn't take any wrong turns or violate any traffic laws. Dixie weighs just enough that the car kept letting me know that it was bothered by my unbuckled "passenger." I think Dixie needs to be adopted by someone with an RV or a truck driver so she can ride around all she wants.
Getting sleepy...
Geeze...she doesn't look a BIT happy in the photo!!!!
She has a CUTE smile!
If you want to SEE a change, you have to BE the change.
I had the pleasure of having Dixie for a sleepover last week. She hadn't been on a sleepover in a couple of months. Dixie really wanted to "help" drive by trying to get in my lap. We had a great time walking around town and eating outside on a patio. During dinner Dixie had a staredown contest with a stray cat. They locked eyes for about 5 minutes from about 20 feet until Dixie finally got bored with it. She didn't try to go after the cat at all and was very well behaved during dinner.
I took Miss Dixie for a walk when I volunteered last week and she's a very sweet girl. She knows that walking trail and is all business on it but she certainly knew when it was time to stop and smell the treats!
