Dixie - Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Plant City, Florida

Dixie is 15 years old and weighs a little over 5lbs. She recently had a dental and had all of her remaining teeth removed. She is spayed and vaccinated. She can be picky about her food and she also startles easily. We pick her up by having her jump into her strawberry bed and transporting her in her bed. She prefers this. She is sweet and will give kisses and cuddles once she gets comfortable with you. Dixie will go potty outside but she has accidents. She is an old lady - so she needs a family that understands this. She had the same family for 10 years and they could no longer care for her so we want her to make one last move to her forever family.

If you are interested in Dixie, please submit an application on our website and we will contact you to set up a meet and greet after we complete your veterinary reference check. https://www.rainingcatsanddogsshelter.com/adoption

We do require a veterinary reference. If you haven't owned a pet previously, please do not apply. Our team will contact your veterinary reference to confirm that your current or previous pets were kept up to date on vaccinations and heartworm prevention.
