Dixie - Mixed Breed and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in York, Pennsylvania

Hi! My name's Dixie and I was surrendered at no fault of my own. The shelter can be an overwhelming place, but the people here are helping me feel secure enough to come out of my shell. I am still a little hesitant at times, especially with quick movements, but if I'm given a little time I love to start getting excited and playful! I'm an older gal, and I really just want to find a family to love on me through my golden years, could you be that family?

These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity.
