Tribble - Corgi and Chihuahua Dog for Adoption in Sanger, Texas

Meet Tribble (Formerly "Trouble" — but Tribble is cuter. Plus, Star Trek.)

Tribble's story didn't start the way she deserved. This chunky little Corgi-Chihuahua mix was found on the side of a road in Slidell, TX — motionless, with wounds, and very much in need of someone to show up for her. A Good Samaritan did, and Wise County Animal Control brought her in.

She was microchipped. We got excited. We thought we'd found her person.

Instead, we learned that her original owner — the woman who loved her — had passed away. Her husband rehomed her, lost track of who he'd given her to, and declined to pick her up when we called. (We're not naming names, but someone is going to be haunted. Just saying.)

The new owners never came. So Tribble came to us.

And here's what we found: underneath the road rash and the hard luck was a spicy, sassy, deeply loving little dog who just needed someone to earn her trust. Once you do? She is a world-class cuddle bug. A velcro dog. A "sit on your feet and stare at you with complete devotion" kind of girl.

She'll absolutely put some pep in your step — she has opinions and she shares them. But for the right person, she is everything.

Tribble needs:


An experienced dog owner who understands big personality in a small package
A home without young children
Either an only-dog household, OR a confident dog who can hold their own (she's been around other dogs but has her spicy moments)


Tribble comes with:


Current vaccinations
Spayed and microchipped
Potty trained
A love of her crate — it's her safe place, her fortress of solitude


Tribble has already survived more than she should have had to. She's ready for her final chapter to be a good one.
