DOG OF THE WEEK - PIXIE - When Pixie came into rescue about six months ago she was a nervous wreck, un-handleable by humans and scared of her own shadow. She couldn't cope with the outside world and the car was just too much to bear.  After being in a foster home for some time Pixie is now one of the most amazing dogs that anyone could wish to meet, every morning you are greeted by a very loopy lurcher that doesn't just wag her tail but her whole body wags in excitement as if you have been away for a year.  Pixie is now looking for the lucky person who will give this gorgeous special girl her forever home.  Photo and full details on this page and the "adopt a dog" page.
