What WeRescue Scout knows about Dixie in TN (looking for a forever foster)
Dixie is a calm, blind senior dachshund who thrives in a quiet, low-stimulus environment. She needs a patient, understanding home in Tennessee with no other pets, preferably on the ground floor, where she can rest peacefully and be safely walked on a leash.
Best suited to homes with children aged 10+
Good to know
- She is blind and defensive, so she needs an experienced, patient adopter who understands her behavior.
- She must be an only dog; she is not safe with other pets.
- She cannot be in a home with children under 10 due to her sensitivity and potential for stress.
