Meet Dixie Pearl

Dixie is the newest member of our family. She is a very sweet, playful, energetic, and happy girl. She was found roaming a greenbelt near I-30 in Fort Worth. Bless her heart she was rescued after 3 days of efforts by a sweet lady named Suzette of No Kill Fort Worth. I knew she was the one when I saw her online. Trevor had been certain he wanted a Boykin Spaniel but they are very hard to come by and if they're from a breeder they are around $1500-$2000. I've always been more of a rescue dog person myself so I just didn't feel right. So I scoured adoptapet and findapet.com to find a Boykin but never could find one close. Then we were giving up the idea of a Boykin and I remember saying a prayer for God to lead us to the right family dog for us and I looked one more time on those websites and found her. It was like she was selected for us. So I got in touch with Suzette the next morning and arranged for us to come to Fort Worth to meet Dixie and if it worked out we would bring her home.

 When we first came out into her area she wasn't so sure about us. She barked and was hesitant. She stayed near Suzette but not long after she decided she wanted to check us out and not much longer she was giving the boys kisses.

 Tate thought she was pretty sweet.

 She needed a little time but she wanted to be near us.

 Trevor got his Boykin. On the way home she was Trevor's co-captain and gave lots of snuggles and kisses. She did great in the car and the boys liked having her back there with them.

She loves to play and needs lots of exercise. This poor baby of hers lasted all of a week and most of her others have lasted less than a day. She also loves bones and belly rubs and is always by our sides. She is a sweetheart and definitely a fun addition to our family. We are glad to have her in our home.

Isn't she so pretty?! Love you Dixie Pearl
