About Dixie

Adoption Fee: $250
Yorkie
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Dixie is a playful 4 year old Yorkie. She is dog selective, so a home without others pets is preferred. She does get along with some dogs but prefers to have her humans all to herself! Dixie has a feisty personality and is working on her behavioral issues. An experienced home is a MUST. She cannot go to a home with children. Due to a very strong personality and a bite history, Dixie will only be available for adoption to someone who is an experienced dog owner that has dealt with dogs with a dominant nature. She will NOT be allowed into a home with children, grandchildren, or one that babysits children or has children frequently visit. The adopter must have a crate, Martingale collar and 6 foot leash. The adopter will be required to enroll in a 6 week obedience course at Canine Training Unlimited (included in the adoption fee). This training facility is located in Chesapeake, VA. The adopter must also be willing to do continued training beyond the 6 weeks if necessary. This is a good dog but thinks she should be allowed to be the boss and needs to have rules and boundaries set and enforced. She needs to learn that bad behavior and 'temper tantrums' need to stop. If you are not willing to do everything it takes to work with this dog and help it become a loving family member then this isn't the dog for you. She is doing well with the current foster but acts up when put into another home. She needs to be given time to decompress and get to know a new owner. If you are seriously interested in adoption and are willing to work for a lasting and rewarding friendship please contact us. If you don't have the time or dedication for this particular dog we do have plenty of others that are available for adoption.
