⨠Adoption Post for Dixie â Tailwise NB First Contact
Dixie â Seeking the Right, Safe, Forever Home
Moncton, NB
Dixie is a dog who holds a very special place in my heart. Iâve worked with her personally, and I can say with confidence that in the right environment, she has so much love, loyalty, and joy to give. Because she deserves a home that truly understands her, all inquiries will come through me first (Tailwise NB). I will screen for suitability and, if itâs a good match, connect you directly with her current owners.
About Dixie
5.5âyearâold female Catahoula x Ridgeback mix
85â90 lbs, fully vetted, HW negative
Possible chicken allergy (currently on salmon & sweet potato kibble)
Houseâtrained and crateâtrained
Smart, affectionate, playful, and deeply bonded to her people
Loves cuddles, walks, structure, and routine
Why She Needs a Specific Type of Home
Dixie is not a âfirstâtime dog ownerâ type of dog. She has a bite history, is fearâreactive, and can become overwhelmed by visitors, unfamiliar people, or dogs. She currently wears a muzzle for safety, and she thrives with clear boundaries, predictable structure, and calm leadership.
She must be:
The only pet in the home
In an adultâonly, stable, lowâchaos environment
With someone who has experience with reactivity, management, and behaviour plans
With an adopter who understands that progress comes from consistency, not shortcuts
What You Get in Return
With her trusted people, Dixie is:
Sweet
Funny
Loyal
Emotionally connected
Eager to work
A total cuddle bug
She is not a âdangerous dogâ â she is a dog with big feelings, a history that shaped her, and a heart that wants to belong. With the right person, her world can get bigger, safer, and calmer.
If You Think You Might Be Her Person
Please reach out to Tailwise NB directly.
I will be the first point of contact, and only serious, experienced, and appropriate inquiries will be forwarded to her owners.
Dixie deserves a home that sees her for who she truly is â not just her challenges, but her potential.
