When rescuers first met Dixie, she was in rough shape. Her fur was nearly gone, her skin red and painful from severe infection, and her body told a story of long-term neglect. But despite the discomfort, this resilient girl never gave up.
Thanks to medicated baths, proper veterinary care, and a loving foster home, Dixie’s transformation has been incredible. Her skin is now under control, her fur is coming back, and her sparkle is returning too. While she may always have some skin sensitivities—likely from underlying allergies—her condition is manageable with consistent care, and she’s an absolute champ about taking her baths.
Why Dixie Deserves Her Happily Ever After

🛁 Tolerant and easygoing with treatment and care routines
🏠 House-trained and living peacefully with both dogs and cats
🧠 Smart and responsive to training
🐾 Loyal and affectionate—just working on sharing her person!
Dixie is a loyal companion who thrives with love and consistency. In her foster home, she’s doing great with other animals, though she does tend to get extra-attached to her person and may need gentle reminders about sharing attention. But she listens well and wants nothing more than to be a good girl.
