Pixie at 5 weeks
Pixie at 6 months
UPDATE: Pixie placed 7/7/19 – stay tuned for updates
Pixie, third and final born of my own dog Franny, and born on 10/18/18, after some fits and starts with her purpose, is now ready for placement and support. (learn more about the early months of Pixie and her siblings on my blog, STARTING HERE.) This irrepressible English Springer Spaniel puppy is already trained, socialized and excels in public access training and is seeking the perfect partner.
Ideal candidate is an active (or whose goal is to increase activity) young person wanting an experienced guide to create a service dog partnership. Pixie has the temperament, personality and foundation to provide a myriad of talents that can be personalized for functionality through training and guided support. She’d be ideal for someone who grapples with various challenges including but not necessarily limited to various medical conditions, anxiety, PTSD, depression, and social challenges. Other placements absolutely considered — partnering dogs with the right people or people with the right dogs is one of my greatest gifts and I am in no hurry to place her — finding her the right partner is the most important part of this process.
Loves to cuddle – 7 months
Pixie’s placement includes her purchase price (she is fully up to date on vaccinations and is current on flea/tick and heart worm preventative), a six month training agreement (the secret sauce of service dog training through A Better Pet LLC), free membership to A Better Pet Peer Support Group and a lifetime free membership to DIP (Drop in Play). Please feel free to review the videos from previous clients (Teams Rachel and Riley, Eriko and Dolce and Sarah and Scout) to get an idea of the transformative, positive effect a well trained and healthy dog along with support and guidance can provide for people who struggle with day to day challenges.
