Introducing Tripod Trixie! Trixie is a 3-year-old Australian cattle dog mix weighing a little under 30 pounds. As her name suggests, she has only three legs. Her right hind leg was removed at some point in her past for reasons unknown. She certainly has no trouble getting around with only three legs though! Trixie truly believes that strangers are just best friends she hasn’t met yet- maybe you could be her new best friend?

Tripod Trix is quite nervous around other dogs and cats, so she would prefer a home without other pets or a long slow introduction to any potential fur siblings. She adores people though, including children, and is even gentle around toddlers (especially if they share their snacks). Trixie is a pleasure to walk on leash, never pulling and falling naturally into a “heel” position. She is pretty low energy, preferring to cuddle and snooze on the couch instead. Her three legs are working overtime after all! She is medium velcro- she likes to be around her people and will follow around the house, but not always, and she has no problem being left alone. She is safe to be left loose when alone, she is housebroken and non-destructive, but she is also crate trained if needed.

Trixie is truly a special pup who deserves a nice home and family. Her ideal forever home would be a place where she can doze off on the couch, get some belly rubs, and hang out with her favorite people. Consider adding Trixie to your family today!

Trixie is fostered in PA.
