Trixie is looking for a very specific and experienced new home, ideally a home that has had working type breeds before. Due to being a stray we have very limited history on her background. She?s a young terrier who thrives on being busy and active. She is able to learn quickly and requires an owner who can meet her physical and mental energy needs appropriately. She is social around dogs and people, but requires an adult only home. She may be able to live with another neutered dog, pending successful meetings at the centre. Once Trixie has built a bond with her carers she enjoys strokes and snuggles with them.

Trixie LOVES water. She will happily get in our doggy pools at the centre and will even squeeze herself into a bucket if it has water in! Trixie has been on walks away from the centre. She will say hello to dogs and people and continue happily on with her walk. She also had a little swim in the ponds!

Trixie shows good signs of being house trained, preferring to toilet away from her bedding, but she is likely to need support with this in a home, for this reason Trixie will need someone who is based at home during the day that has the time and flexibility to spend with her. She can relax and sleep in her kennel during the daytime and this will need to be supported in a home to ensure she is properly rested. We do not know how Trixie will adapt to being at home alone so this would need to be introduced gradually to her. Trixie will need her own private, enclosed secure garden for off lead fun and scent games.

Trixie is currently under the care of our behaviour team as she does have some areas that require ongoing support and management, due to this she requires a very experienced foster to adopt home. Trixie is looking for a very active home that has the time and energy to give her the mental enrichment and physical exercise that she needs to fulfil her breed traits. Trixie is looking for an adopter that will take her to enrichment classes such as scent or search and rescue classes as this will give her an outlet for her working drive.
