Trixie is a tough one

Trixie is one tough dog. She ended up at the Rockwall Animal Adoption Center after her rear legs were crushed, probably after she was hit by a car. She's alive today due to the nurturing and care of the staff at Rockwall Animal Services. They nursed Trixie back to health, so now this resilient lady is looking for a home. This playful shepherd mix has earned her second chance. She's your Rockwall Adoptable Shelter Pet for the week of October 18, 2010.


Trixie is also living proof that Rockwall Animal Services is one of the best departments of its type in America. Animal Services spent weeks caring for Trixie before she was well enough to be put up for adoption. Animal Services cared for Jenny the cat for six months before she was adopted earlier this month. The stories are endless.


Suffice it to say that Rockwall Animal Services works extremely hard to find these dogs and cats new homes. They'll do whatever it takes until the shelter pet - and its new family - has a happy ending.


That's dedication. That's excellence.
