Pixie - Silky Terrier and Australian Terrier Dog for Adoption in Bradenton, Florida

Meet PIXIE!

This adorable little girl is PIXIE, a 9-pound Silky Terrier mix who is estimated to be about 1 year old. She was found as a stray, so unfortunately we don’t know much about her history, but one thing we know for sure is that this little girl is VERY SWEET!

Pixie is a true little Velcro pup who absolutely loves being with her people. She is a wonderful snuggler and a real lap dog who would happily curl up beside you and soak up all the love she can get. She is very eager to please and is learning new things every day. We are hoping for someone that works from home so that she can cling to them all day long.

Pixie appears to be a piddle-pad pup and is doing well using them, but she is also learning to do her business outside. She is still working on her leash skills, so her new family will need to be patient and continue helping her become a confident little walking companion. She loves to run, so because she can be a runner, her family will need to be extremely careful around doors and gates and make sure she is always safely contained and a securely fenced yard is an absolute must while she learns leash walking.

Pixie can be a little shy when she first meets someone, but she warms up beautifully. She has adapted very well to other dogs and cats and has even become wonderful friends with her foster’s 5-month-old kitten! The two of them play exceptionally well together.

Pixie is also a pretty quiet little girl and generally only barks to alert you when she thinks something needs your attention. She is sweet, affectionate, playful, and happiest when she is right by your side.

If you’re looking for a tiny companion who wants to be your shadow, cuddle in your lap, play, and be part of everything you do, Pixie could be the perfect little girl for you!
