Trixie is a 5 year old french bulldog cross pug who sadly has been diagnosed with cancer so needs a very special home.

To donate to her care and the animals at the GSPCA please visit https://giving.gg/donate/charity/2/Guernsey-Society-for-the-Prevention-of-Cruelty-to-Animals-(GSPCA)

Seb Goman Senior Animal Care and Welfare Assistant said “Trixie came into our care through no fault of her own, full of life and affection.”

“When Trixie arrived, she had a very large mass on her right hind leg.”

“She was sent to the vet where the mass was removed and sent off for testing.”

“But shortly after, our team discovered devastating news: Trixie has been diagnosed with Mast Cell Tumour, a form of cancer that has already begun to spread.”

“While this diagnosis is serious, Trixie still has time and she has so much love left to give.”

“Trixie is good with other dogs and did arrive with a Pug companion called Blue.”

“These two have shared their lives and space together, and ideally, we would love to see them rehomed as a pair.”

“However, we also understand that Trixie's medical needs may require financial and emotional commitment, so we are open to rehoming separately if that means Trixie finds the best possible home for her final years.”

“With the right care, treatment, and management, Trixie could have up to three more good years. But we can't do that without your help. Trixie has given so much love to everyone she meets.”

“Now, we are asking our community to help give that love back.”

“Whether you can give a little or a lot, your donation will make a real difference in the life of one very special dog.”

“For more information on Trixie (and her pug companion) please visit our website.”
