CULLMAN, Ala. – Meet Dixie, The Cullman Tribune Pet of the Week! She’s a 4–5-year-old Border Collie mix whose zest for life is simply contagious. While her robust physique may be the first thing you notice, those extra pounds are steadily melting away, revealing a healthier, more active frame.
Even more striking than her physical transformation is her remarkable personality. Dixie’s alert, optimistic demeanor radiates joy, and she cherishes every person she meets. She’s a true “lover of life,” making friends everywhere she goes.
With her gentle spirit and people-focused nature, she has all the makings of a wonderful therapy or companion dog. If you’re looking for a furry friend who will greet each day with enthusiasm and every person with love, Dixie may just be the perfect match for you.
Already spayed, Dixie’s adoption fee has been reduced to just $35, which includes vaccines, microchip, wormer and a general vet exam.
Visit the shelter at 935 Convent Road NE. It’s open Monday through Friday, from 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m. If Dixie is no longer available when you arrive, don’t worry — many of her friends are also waiting for their forever homes.
