Please read the bio in its ENTIRETY. If you feel your family is a perfect match, please send an email to gateway4paws@gmail.com for additional information. Only complete & qualified applications will be considered/contacted.

We do not allow shipping & do not transport. You must live within 350 miles from Maryville, IL & able to drive there for a meet and greet. We are a 100% foster-based rescue. Applications & FAQ about our adoption process can be found on our website.

Trixie is a friend to everyone, especially the person who is dedicated to paying attention to her. Her foster mom describes her as sweet, loving, and needy of attention.

Trixie takes initiative & will learn her way around her surroundings with confidence. Unlike many dogs in our care, Trixie will likely do very well in an active home. She has the energy & enjoys physical activities.

She does well on a leash & harness. She isn't perfect, but with some work & training she will improve. She is doing extremely well with housetraining, and she will need consistency & praise to continue this success. We won't require a fence, but the family needs to be dedicated to taking her out safely & attended at ALL TIMES. Never EVER should she be left in the yard alone.

At night she enjoys snuggling into the big bed with her foster family. She would do well during the day if she was left in a dog-proof area of the home.

If you are the right family to bring Trixie home, please email & submit your application!
