Trixie spent the first two years of her life living on a farm in Stevensville. At the age of 2, when her elderly owner could no longer care for her, she came to live with Rose­mary, one of our RVT’s. Trixie took a while to adapt to ​“city” life, but is a very sweet, resilient dog who absolutely adores every person that she meets. She enjoys an active lifestyle, and can often be spotted on walks about Fort Erie. As a young dog, Trixie partic­i­pated in Agility with her K9 Pal Siren. Due to being a bit dog reac­tive, she spent her younger years hiking, canoe­ing and hanging out with her human pals. She has mellowed in her senior years, and has partic­i­pated in many dog sports, includ­ing Ruff Mudder (which is a 5 km obsta­cle course for dogs and their humans), Rally Obedi­ence, Cani­cross, and even aided her K9 team­mates in winning a silver medal in the ​“K9 Olympics” at her dog train­ing class. Every week, she makes a pilgrim­age back to her birth­place of Stevensville to recon­nect with country life on her friend’s farm, where she enjoys hanging out with the pig and the chick­ens. Trixie can always be counted on to have a spring in her step and a sparkle in her eye, and is an eager partic­i­pant in many Borderview photo­shoots, so follow us on face­book to keep up on her shenani­gans. She also made her film debut in our National Cupcake Day video with her pals, Stella and Ripley. Trixie is defi­nitely a crowd favourite here at Borderview.
