Dixa is an adorable, sweet and snuggly dog. She is shy yet curious and if you let her have time she will trust you. She is friendly with dogs and people, yet not sure about cats and small children, although I've not seen any aggression at all.

She is housebroken if you watch her signals. She uses a crate to nap occasionally but is happy to be on the couch snuggling. She is very affectionate and will climb onto your lap to sleep or have her neck and belly scratched. 

I can't say she is crate trained 100%. She goes in easily, but did pee in the crate when left for a few hours.
She is not an early riser and is very playful in the morning.
 
She eats her meals well but will not approach bowl if you are near. She is shy about going out or coming in the house but is getting better. She understands "No" and "leave it" and will come if you put your palms towards her. She is not a barker and was easy to bathe.
 
Because she was in a pack, some of her shyness may go away when with other dogs.

If you are interested, complete the  Adoption Application  on our website at  www.NeedyPaws.org  and we will contact you.  Adopters must live within an hour’s drive of St. Louis, MO.
