Adopting from Brixie’s is one of the best things you can do

.When you adopt from Brixie’s, you’re not just giving a cat or dog a second chance — you’re changing a life. Every adoption helps us rescue more animals in need and stand against neglect and irresponsible breeding practices. Together, we’re building a community that puts love and compassion before profit.

Meet Our Adoptable’s

    Papa Bear

    Rescued at just 5 months old, this lovable boy has been through a lot but still has nothing but love to give. After being adopted last year, he sadly found himself back in rescue — but we know his perfect forever family is out there waiting!

    Papa Bear is a short, stocky cuddle bug who adores everyone he meets. He’s great with kids, cats, and other dogs, and would thrive in a home that loves playtime, walks, and snuggles. He’s a bit of a goofball on leash but with some patience and love, he’s sure to blossom even more.

    Buddy (Special Needs)

    our sweet, almost 3-year-old Spaniel with a heart of gold!

    Despite some back and hip tenderness, this cheerful boy doesn’t let anything slow him down. With the help of his meds and a little extra care, Buddy enjoys playtime, cuddles, and exploring the world around him.

    He’s great with kids, cats, and other dogs — truly the perfect companion for any loving home. His foster has been amazing at helping him thrive with a diaper and belly band, and he continues to prove just how resilient and affectionate he is.

  • Whitney

    Sweet, gentle, and full of quiet charm — that’s Whitney! This beautiful girl, sister to Wilbur and Wesley, is about 30 pounds and will stay on the smaller side, making her the perfect medium-sized companion.

    Born to a feral mother in South Carolina, Whitney and her siblings were rescued just in time from a shelter. Though she can be a bit shy at first, her tender heart shines once she feels safe and loved. Around other dogs, her confidence blossoms — which is why she’d do best in a home with a furry friend to help guide her.

He’s smart, social, and eager to please, making him a perfect fit for a family ready to give him all the love he deserves.

    Hershel was born with a deformed eye, which may cause limited vision — but it doesn’t stop his stride or his love for exploring the world around him. 🌎💙 Sadly, he’s often overlooked because of it, but we know his forever family will see the amazing pup he really is. He and his brother Rick are patiently waiting forever homes!

    Rescued at just 10 weeks old along with 14siblings near euthanasia, this beautiful girl will celebrate her first birthday on December 10th, and it breaks our hearts that she’s still waiting for a family of her own. She’s the last of her litter, left behind through no fault of her own.

    Slingy truly is the perfect dog — she’s wonderful with kids, cats, and other dogs, and has the most gentle, affectionate personality. She loves to play, snuggle, and follow her people around for love and attention.

    This sweet girl has grown up in rescue, watching her siblings find homes one by one. She deserves to finally know what it’s like to have a family to call her own — a warm bed, a daily walk, and people who love her endlessly.

    Found wandering the streets of the Bronx, NY, Chance was taken in by the NYPD, but when no one came forward, he joined our rescue family. Now he’s safe, loved, and waiting for his forever home.

    Chance is a spicy little guy with a big personality packed into a small body! He’s great with cats and friendly dogs, but would do best in a quieter home without small children or too much commotion. Once he trusts you, he’s incredibly loyal and loving — the perfect companion for someone looking for a small dog with a big heart.

    Maggie is about 40 pounds of pure love and energy — short, strong, and full of personality! This girl has come such a long way, and she’s ready to find a family who truly understands her needs.

    Maggie would do best in a home with experienced owners who can give her time, structure, and patience as she continues to learn. She’s a high-energy pup who loves to play and thrive with an active lifestyle — hikes, walks, and adventures are her favorite!

    For now, Maggie would do best as an only dog, and with older children who can match her energy and confidence. She has so much love to give to the right person — she just needs her chance.
