Description:
Pixie was just dumped left alone.  She found her way to someone's house, and at 5 in the morning was scratching on their door to find comfort.  She is scared, but with a little time and patience,  she will be so loveable.  She needs to learn to trust again. Already, Pixie will lay down under our desk at work and just wait to get petted.  
Pixie is heartworm positive, but that is not a death sentence.  Many HW+ dogs lead a happy, healthy, and active life if caught and treated early....like we are doing with this sweet girl.  Pixie is being treated with a HW slow kill method and literature will be provided at time of fostering or adoption.
Once you look in Pixie's face, I promise you you will fall in love. 

According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, Cocker Spaniels are cheerful, sweet, and sensitive. The Cocker Spaniel is respectful of its master's authority without much challenge. Merry and endearing. A happy tail-wagger. Gentle and trusting, with average intelligence. They are lively, playful and devoted. Cockers will do okay in an apartment if they are adequately exercised, and are fairly active indoors. A small yard is sufficient. The American Cocker Spaniel is smaller than the English Cocker Spaniel and has a different conformation. The name "Cocker" comes from the woodcock, a game bird these spaniels flushed particularly well. Today, the Cocker Spaniel serves primarily as a companion and glamorous show dog. It can also be used for hunting, tracking, retrieving, watchdogging and agility. They have a life expectancy of 12-15 years.
