Dixie is a lovely 13-year-old English Pointer. She is a sweet dog who craves companionship. In spite of arthritis and an old tendon injury, she is quite agile and loves going on walks. In fact, she still gets random bursts of energy just like a puppy. She is looking for a forever home where she can be the only dog.
